If you're copying from a notebook, your best bet is to start a notebook kernel and then copy cell-by-cell. If you already have a full notebook, you can start a notebook kernel and then upload your notebook by clicking on the little cloud with an up arrow button at the top of the notebook.\n2.   If you're pasting all the code for your notebook, scripts will throw a bit of a fit (although RMarkdown will work fine). Notebook kernels are a Jupyter notebook already, so pasting the code for making a notebook inside it will end up confusing it.\n3.   Huh. Nooooot entirely sure what's going on there.</p>",
