It is possible to create a jupyter notebook using python (source)

import nbformat as nbf
nb = nbf.v4.new_notebook()
text = """# My first automatic Jupyter Notebook"""
code = """print("hello world")"""
nb['cells'] = [nbf.v4.new_markdown_cell(text), nbf.v4.new_code_cell(code)]
fname = 'helloworld.ipynb'
with open(fname, 'w') as f:
    nbf.write(nb, f)

This example is a python script to create a jupyter notebook that shows how to create a jupyter notebook shwowing an example on how to use itertools combinations.

import nbformat as nbf

nb = nbf.v4.new_notebook()
text = """\
# My first automatic Jupyter Notebook
This is an auto-generated notebook."""

code = """\

import nbformat as nbf

nb = nbf.v4.new_notebook()
text = \"""\ Function for Finding Factorial\"""

code = \"""\
from itertools import combinations
print([' '.join(i) for i in combinations("0xfab1", 2) ])
\"""\

nb['cells'] = [nbf.v4.new_markdown_cell(text),
               nbf.v4.new_code_cell(code)]
fname = 'FindingFactorial.ipynb'

with open(fname, 'w') as f:
    nbf.write(nb, f)
"""

nb['cells'] = [nbf.v4.new_markdown_cell(text),
               nbf.v4.new_code_cell(code)]
fname = 'AutomaticallyCreateAJupyterNotebook.ipynb'

with open(fname, 'w') as f:
    nbf.write(nb, f)
