Fernando,

I have said this before, and it can't be repeated often enough.  The work
that you and your team has been doing the past few years with the notebook
is *already* revolutionizing how we teach python.  10 years from now,
programmers will point to this as the *killer* feature of python.

Kudos!

Awesome, my question answered before I'd even asked it :)

Hi, 
I haven't read the all thread yet, 
but for what we did at SciPy Texas, we achieved some prototype of 
	Encrypted cells, 
	Hidable Cells, 
	Cell with custom background depending on type (green for numpy example...etc) 
And a presentation mode that showed cell by blocks. 

This should be doable much more easily now that notebook support custom Js/Css on a per profile basis.

Also i'll be out of reach from the 15 to the 20 so if you have any question i'll try to respond to you quickly.

Some experimental branches.

Fantastic ! This is very valuable teaching material.
Really great job and big thanks to all the ipython developers.

Matthias, hope to see you at Euroscipy (and see some ipython demos).
In fact, I've also some questions around ipython/webgl for you...

Actually in the notebook it is now possible to enable exercises,
hints, reveal-boxes, etc.  I'm cc'ing here Matthias Bussonnier b/c I'm
not sure if he's on the mpl list.  He's one of our recent core devs
who is behind a lot of our new JS magic in the notebook, and he's also
a French scientist who will be at Euroscipy, so you guys could perhaps
touch bases (I'm unfortunately not going to make it this year).

Ultimately we'd like to make it very easy to write tutorials such as
yours directly as notebooks, so that when used in the classroom
students can work straight off them, and yet also publish then with
clean and customizable HTML on the web like you did.  Lots of the
pieces are in place, though not quite all yet :)

Cheers,

f

Thanks Fernando !

By the way, I suspect the simple plot part may well suited for the ipython notebook !
I'll give it a try.

Wow!  Other than the rendering glitches already mentioned, this is
*awesome*.  We're teaching a python workshop at UC Berkeley in 2 weeks
(http://register.pythonbootcamp.info) and I just suggested we use this
for our mpl intro.

It's the best one I've seen so far, and the reference info at the
bottom as well as the mini-gallery will make it a very useful resource
even for seasoned users.

Fantastic job, Nicolas (and Mike M.), and thanks for sharing this
great resource!

Cheers,
