Unlock IPython's Magical Toolbox for Your Coding Journey.

When you’re executing Python code, the standard Python shell that comes with your Python installation is a natural tool to use. However, as you progress in your coding journey, you might find yourself seeking more powerful functionalities than the standard REPL offers. Luckily, IPython offers an enhanced version of interactive Python that can supercharge your capabilities.

Using the IPython shell is a fast way of learning Python and executing code without the need for a full-fledged integrated development environment (IDE), such as PyCharm. IPython adds great features to the Python experience with its magic commands, which the standard Python shell lacks. These can help you complete tasks more quickly.

In this tutorial, you’ll:

  • Learn the major aspects and functionality of the IPython shell
  • Write and execute code in IPython
  • Integrate IPython in your Python scripts
  • Use IPython’s magic commands in your coding sessions
  • Learn how to save your sessions persistently in a Python file

To get started with IPython, you don’t need to be far along in your Python journey. In fact, IPython is an excellent learning tool because it offers an intuitive interface. Are you ready to get started?
