### Access to notebooks {: #access-to-notebooks }

Notebooks offer an in-browser editor to create and execute code for data science analysis and modeling. They also display computation results in various formats, including text, images, graphs, plots, tables, and more. You can customize output display by using open-source plugins. Cells can also contain Markdown rich text for commentary and explanation of the coding workflow.
