Convert PDB EBOOK to IPYNB (Jupyter Notebook)

The PDB (Palm Database) file extension, associated with PalmDoc eBooks, is a format used for storing eBooks on Palm OS devices. Originating from AportisDoc, PalmDoc files are plain ASCII text compressed using Run-Length Encoding (RLE) to save memory space. These files are decompressed on the fly by PalmDoc readers, facilitating efficient storage and quick access. The PDB format, with its Creator ID and Type attributes, ensures compatibility across various Palm applications, making it a versatile choice for eBook distribution on Palm devices.

The IPYNB file extension stands for "Interactive Python Notebook" and is used exclusively with Jupyter Notebook. It is a JSON file format that contains a complete record of user sessions, including code, narrative text, equations, and visualizations. The IPYNB files facilitate reproducible research and easy sharing of data analysis workflows. Originating from the IPython project, Jupyter Notebook has expanded its capabilities to support multiple programming languages, making it a versatile tool in the data science and machine learning communities. The format's history traces back to the early 2010s when it was developed to enhance interactive computing and collaborative work.
