Note
When it comes to embedding images in Jupyter notebooks so that it is available as part of PDF, there are various methods to include images. Below are the five options to embed an image of an early Mathematica interface.
HTML Image Tag
<img src="mathematica.png" alt="Early Mathematica Interface" style="width: 250px;" class="center"/>
This method uses standard HTML to embed an image. It is straightforward and allows for extensive customization through HTML attributes like style and class.
Markdown Image Syntax
Markdown provides a simple syntax for embedding images. This method is concise and ideal for use in Markdown cells in Jupyter notebooks.
HTML in Markdown Cell
<img src="https://rtl.berkeley.edu/profiles/openberkeley/themes/openberkeley_theme_brand/assets/images/berkeley_wordmark_blue_175x70.svg" alt="Berkeley Logo" style="width: 250px;" class="center"/>
Embedding an image using HTML within a Markdown cell offers the flexibility of HTML while allowing the cell to remain in Markdown mode. This is useful for more complex styling and alignment requirements.
IPython Display Module
from IPython.display import display, Image
display(Image(filename="mathematica.png", width=250))\
The IPython.display module provides functions to display images directly in Jupyter notebooks.
Markdown Image with Attachment
This method is used to embed an image as an attachment within a Jupyter notebook. It references the image by its attachment identifier, which is useful for images embedded directly within the notebook file.
