I am not a programmer. I have only used Matlab and VBA for Excel. I installed Conda to begin learning R and Python. Having discovered Julia, I plan to learn R after Julia.

In the documentation I read:  
To tell IJulia to use your _own_`jupyter` installation, you need to set `ENV["JUPYTER"]` to the path of the `jupyter` program before running `Pkg.add("IJulia")` (if jupyter is in your PATH, you can also just use `ENV["JUPYTER"]="jupyter"` ).

I do not know how to set `ENV["JUPYTER"]` to the path of the `jupyter` program.

My PC runs Windows. Should I go the the DOS prompt. And then?

Thanks in advance

open julia and do the following.

> I took the following steps to install IJulia and it works both on Julia 0.7 and 1.0 version on Win10. I am using normal installation of Python (not Conda). ENV[“PYTHON”] = specify path to ptyhon.exe ENV[“JUPYTER”] = specify path to jupyter.exe using Pkg;Pkg.add(“IJulia”);Pkg.build(“IJulia”) using IJulia Hope it helps.

Type “where python/jupyter” in windows terminal to find their location.  
e.g.

```julia
ENV["JUPYTER"]="C:/Users/chatura/AppData/Local/Programs/Python/Python37/Scripts/jupyter.exe"

```
