We as data scientists love to experiment, prototype, and try different things out, and the data science notebook experience is designed to facilitate this type of on-the-fly interaction.\u00a0 We can use snapshots to ensure that we can always come back to a clean version of our data and code.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3><strong>Jupyter Notebooks: \u201cAutosave\u201d vs. \u201cCheckpoint\u201d<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>If you are a Jupyter Notebook user, you may be familiar with the terms \u201cAutosave\u201d or \u201cCheckpoint\u201d.\u00a0 When you create a new Jupyter Notebook, it creates an initial .ipynb file and a hidden subdirectory named .ipynb_checkpoints, which also contains the checkpoint.ipynb file in your save location.\u00a0 Think of the initial .ipynb file as the notebook you are working in, and the checkpoint.ipynb file as the one you can revert back to if needed.<\/p>\n"},{"acf_fc_layout":"image","image":{"ID":1186512,"id":1186512,"title":"Checkpoint1","filename":"Checkpoint1.png","filesize":7511,"url":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2021\/04\/Checkpoint1.png","link":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/products\/arcgis-online\/analytics\/save-and-restore-your-progress-with-arcgis-notebook-snapshots\/checkpoint1","alt":"","author":"154341","description":"","caption":"","name":"checkpoint1","status":"inherit","uploaded_to":1186372,"date":"2021-04-07
