Shortcut key for changing code cell to markdown cell in jupyter notebook
Kind of silly, but is there a shortcut key to change a code cell to markdown cell?
To place a markdown cell, I have to insert a cell, then go to the toolbar menu (below the main menu bar), and then select "Markdown" instead of "Code".
Solution 1:
Press M whilst in command mode (highlight around the selected cell should be blue, not green), use Esc to switch to command mode and Enter to switch back to edit mode.
So, if you're editing a cell, the key presses to change the cell to a markdown cell are Esc, M, Enter.
You can look up all the Jupyter notebook keyboard commands by pressing the keyboard icon in the toolbar. You can also edit your keyboard shortcuts by going to Help > Edit Keyboard Shortcuts
Solution 2:
check help on the menu, there is keyboard shortcuts
select the code cell, press "esc + m ",and it will be a markdown cell. moreover, from markdown cell to code cell, press " esc + y ".
Solution 3:
Navigate to the required cell and press the Esc
key on your keyboard followed by the M
key
