Datalore 2024.5 Help

Manage kernels

Kernel is the element that runs the cells in your notebook. At the moment, Datalore provides kernels for Python, Kotlin, Scala, and R.

Select kernel for a new notebook

You choose which kernel to choose in the new notebook on the Kernel tab of the New notebook dialog.

Kernel and mode selection

    Manage kernel in the editor

    You can interrupt or restart the kernel at any time working in the editor. There are two interfaces that you can use: Kernel menu and Computation tool.

    1. Go to Main menu | Kernel.

    2. Select one of the options from the menu:

      • Interrupt kernel: used to stop the currently running task without stopping the kernel.

      • Restart kernel: used to stop and start the kernel again. The main reason why you might need this is to clean the runtime environment of old variable data.

    Kernel menu
    1. Open the Computation tab from the left-hand toolbar.

    2. Under Kernel, click one of the icons:

      • Interrupt kernel: used to stop the currently running task without stopping the kernel.

      • Restart kernel: used to stop and start the kernel again. The main reason why you might need this is to clean the runtime environment of old variable data.
