Dear List,
Suppose I have a function myfunc() in a module called mymodule.py
As usual, I import this function in IPython with
In[1]: from mymodule import myfunc
Now if I find that there is something wrong with myfunc, I can open
mymodule.py with a suitable editor and make the required changes.
Now when I delete the original function and import the changed one,
In[2]: del myfunc
In[3]: from mymodule import myfunc
it doesn't work as per the new changes. I have to close IPython and
start all over again.
Is there a less cumbersome way to do this, preferably without closing IPython?
Thanks
