What is the best documentation for notebooks, specifically the worksheet

it seems to be oriented toward the developer of worksheets, not users.

I've tried things like "help" on the worksheet and it gives me out of
date information, or so it seems. Example: #auto vs %auto for auto
evaluation of a cell.


Feel free to ask here. You should use %auto, which is consistent with the other beginning-of-cell directives (#auto is old and should be deprecated, if it's not already).

Other than the %auto/#auto, I think the help link in the notebook should be fairly up to date. Did you have any other questions about something that was confusing?




I'm using 4.7, downloaded to my Mac, snow leopard, with the .app version.

FYI: I'm trying to implement a chapter of a book, Machine Learning by
Marsland, which uses Python, Numpy & Matplotlib. I'd far rather use
Sage, especially with worksheets, so I can share with folks I work with.
I'm working locally initially and then plan to upload to a sagenb
server. This includes datafiles and python/sage files as well as the
inline python code in the worksheets. I hope this is the way Sage
intends me to use worksheets!


Awesome! We'd love to see this when you want to show it!
