Understanding the value of using notebooks

There are many benefits of using notebooks to explore data in BigQuery. Here are the most important:

• Interactive analysis: Notebooks allow you to interactively analyze data, which means that you can manipulate the results of your queries immediately. This makes it easy to explore different datasets and find patterns that you might not have otherwise seen. The interactivity of notebooks fosters a deeper understanding of the data, as analysts can experiment with different types of queries, visualizations, and transformations with ease. The ability to mix code cells with text explanations and visualizations within a notebook empowers analysts to tell a comprehensive data story, making it easier to work with others and communicate insights to stakeholders.
• Visualizations: Notebooks make it easy to create visualizations of your data. This can help you understand your data better and communicate your findings to others.
