Submitting Assignments to Canvas

Graduate Quantitative Economics and Datascience

For problem sets, but not exams, we ask that you submit both the notebook .ipynb and a html export. A few notes:

• Canvas automatically appends the student name to the filename upon submission so please do not rename the files as it makes sorting them more difficult.
  • e.g., leave the files problem_set_0.ipynb and problem_set_0.html
• However, it is best to ensure your name and student number are included in the appropriate fields within the assignment as a backup.
• Submit both the .ipynb and the .html export of the assignment. Avoid exporting to PDF, which requires a latex installation.

Exporting to HTML from VS Code

When using VS Code’s internal notebook editor, you can export a notebook by:

• Clicking on the 3-dots near “Outline” for your notebook
• Choosing “Export” and then “HTML”. This includes embedded images/output/etc. in one file
• Use the same filename but with the .html extension

Exporting to HTML from Jupyter Lab

When using Jupyter Lab, you can export a notebook by

• Choosing the “File” Menu, then “Save and Export Notebook As” and selecting “HTML”. As with VS Code, this will include all output and images in a single file and does not require a latex installation
• You may need to give permissions to download the file on your computer
