In a Jupyter notebook, I have 5 or 10 line fragments performing some relatively simple arithmetic. The purpose of the notebook is to teach engineering principles, not programming. I want the code to be as easy to read for inexperienced programmers as possible. I would rather not have a lot of statements of the form:
One way I can manage this is to setup objects with attributes providing the data:
the global namespace, and cleans up at the end. So I can write something like:
(A typically notebook will have 20 or 30 cells, of about 5 or
10 lines each with expressions a bit more complicated.
I have an overly long page giving more of the context and some alternatives here
Ag = Plate.w * Plate.tOne way I can manage this is to setup objects with attributes providing the data:
Plate = ... Plate.w = 100 Plate.t = 10Then have the plate object be a context manager that inserts all its attributes as variables in
the global namespace, and cleans up at the end. So I can write something like:
with Plate:
Ag = w*tIs there anything dreadfully wrong with this? (A typically notebook will have 20 or 30 cells, of about 5 or
10 lines each with expressions a bit more complicated.
