2. USING GOOGLE COLAB
How to used Colab
Log in with your Google Gmail account http://colab.research.google.com File > New notebook
How to use GPU
: Change Runtime Type Runtime > Change runtime type > Hardware accelerator – GPU Check GPU specification using command
Mount Google Drive
from google.colab import drive
drive.mount('/content/drive')
URL link > Confirm authentication key > Enter in Colab
Create and check “test_colab” folder
!mkdir -p '/content/drive/My Drive/test_colab'
!ls -Fcal '/content/drive/My Drive/test_colab'
Create a df.csv file in the above folder and save a matrix
import numpy as np
import pandas as pd
df = pd.DataFrame(np.random.rand(10, 5))
df.to_csv("/content/drive/My Drive/test_colab/df.csv")
