Kernels in Lab.Computer

A kernel is the computational engine that runs your code in a notebook. When you write code and press Run, the kernel executes the instructions and returns results.

Key Points About Kernels

  • Different languages: Choose from Python, Julia, R, Java, C++, and others.
  • Memory: Kernels remember all variables and executed code during a session.
  • Independent sessions: Each notebook runs its own kernel; work in one notebook does not affect another.
  • Restart option: Restart the kernel to clear memory and start fresh if needed.
