Working With External Code¶
The IPython Kernel makes it easy to incorporate external code from sources such as the internet or copy/paste.
Pasting code into cells¶
You can copy and paste code from other sources directly into cells. Pasting code with >>> prompts works as expected:
In [7]:
>>> the_world_is_flat = 1
>>> if the_world_is_flat:
... print("Be careful not to fall off!")
The %load magic¶
The %load magic lets you load code from URLs or local files:
In [8]:
%load?
In [9]:
%matplotlib inline
In [10]:
%load http://matplotlib.org/mpl_examples/showcase/integral_demo.py
In [11]:
"""
Plot demonstrating the integral as the area under a curve.
Although this is a simple example, it demonstrates some important tweaks:
* A simple line plot with custom color and line width.
* A shaded region created using a Polygon patch.
* A text label with mathtext rendering.
* figtext calls to label the x- and y-axes.
* Use of axis spines to hide the top and right spines.
* Custom tick placement and labels.
