IPython.core.magics.code:CodeMagics.load

Extended Summary

Usage:\

%load [options] source

where source can be a filename, URL, input history range, macro, or element in the user namespace

If no arguments are given, loads the history of this session up to this point.

Options:

-r <lines>: Specify lines or ranges of lines to load from the source. Ranges could be specified as x-y (x..y) or in python-style x:y (x..(y-1)). Both limits x and y can be left blank (meaning the beginning and end of the file, respectively).

-s <symbols>: Specify function or classes to load from python source.

-yDon't ask confirmation for loading source above 200 000 characters.

-nInclude the user's namespace when searching for source code.

This magic command can either take a local filename, a URL, an history range (see %history) or a macro as argument, it will prompt for confirmation before loading source with more than 200 000 characters, unless -y flag is passed or if the frontend does not support raw_input
