Jupyter command not found in terminal

[Mantegh Sethi]

Hello, I am new to Python 3, running on Mac OS X.

I have been trying to install Jupyter using pip. I believe I have done this successfully, as when I check the installation in terminal it is there and already installed. 

However, when I run 'jupyter notebook' in terminal, I get the message: 'jupyter: command not found'.

From some online reading, I have seen this might be due to path issues, but am not sure how to resolve this.

Any help would be appreciated!!

UPDATE:

The location is as below, but at present I have to enter this entire thing to load up the notebook.

/Users/mantegh/Library/Python/3.7/bin/jupyter-notebook

Is there any way I can do this by just entering 'jupyter-notebook'??

It sounds like your path hasn't been updated.  I'd try opening a new terminal window and see if it works there (this forces a reload of your profile / rc scripts).  If it does, you should be good in the future.  If it doesn't, in the terminal try:

echo $PATH

You should see /Users/mantegh/Library/Python/3.7/bin/ included.  It's likely not so you'll need to add it to your .bash_profile.  Add a line that says something like:

export PATH="/Users/mantegh/Library/Python/3.7/bin/:$PATH"

Save the file and restart the terminal window.  Run echo $PATH again and you should see the path as above.  It should work as expected after that.

Thanks!
