3 Use this to easily edit lists of strings gradually without crafting long
4 list comprehensions.
5
6 'l' is the magic variable name for every line (array element). Save the current
7 result (or more exactly, retrieve the last ipython computation result into
8 %led work area) by running '%led s'. Just run '%led' to show the current work
9 area data.
