Python/Jupyter

Magic Functions

Timing

• %timeit (time line)
• %%timeit (time block in lines below, same line = not timed setup)

importing other jupyter notebook

• run.ipynb:

% run 'lib_testprog.ipynb'
testfunct()

• lib_testprog.ipynb:

def testfunct()
    return 1

if __name__ == '__main__' and '__file__' not in globals():
    print(testfunct())

sharing variables between notebooks

• test1.ipynb:

variable = 'testdata'
%store variable

• test2.ipynb:

%store -r variable
print(variable)

• hints:
  • use "global" in functions

Autorun notebooks on startup

• /home/user/.ipython/profile_default/startup/startup.ipy

#!/usr/bin/ipython

%run /srv/python/script_a.ipynb

c.NotebookApp.ip = '*'
c.NotebookApp.notebook_dir = '/srv/Python'
c.NotebookApp.open_browser = False
c.NotebookApp.password = ''
c.NotebookApp.token = ''
