IPython notebooks #1

Open jaidevd opened 9 years ago

Hi Gilles, Would it be useful if I converted some (or preferably all) of your work into iPython notebooks and sent a patch? This is primarily motivated by OSX Mavericks messing up with my TeX environment and me not being able to build your thesis properly.

Thanks

Hi! Thanks for your interest. Are you suggesting to convert the whole thesis into a giant IPython notebook? This would be great but I am afraid this would also take quite some time.

jaidevd commented 9 years ago

No, I don't think that would be feasible. All your python scripts are fairly self contained and quite well documented, so I suggest we take those scripts, take a little bit of context from the thesis (enough to explain the code in the scripts), and make notebooks out of that.

Okay then, feel free to reuse them to write notebooks :)

@jaidevd @glouppe I really like the idea of IPython notebooks as well. They would be a lot easier to share and display as well.
