All notebooks saved onto the platform will have a DX prefix in front of them. Here is an example:&#x20;

## Storage Locations in JupyterLab&#x20;

## Code Blocks

1. When you are running code blocks, remember that in JupyterLab you can run them out of order. This means that you need to pay attention to the numbers on the side of the code blocks for the order. This is highlighted in gold below:

2. If you choose to write in Python or R primarily, you can use the following at the top of your code block to "switch" to bash scripting. Example below
