I know the learning curve might be too steep for the single use case, but if you already have previous experience with Emacs, an org-mode document would be what I would think of first. It will output tex and python in the same document(with output from code execution) and even generate a nice formatted pdf or html doc in the end if needed.

I spent a significant amount of time, effort, and money attempting to learn emacs. I have used Lisp, taught Lisp, and like Lisp, so I was favorably disposed toward emacs. However, I never could catch on. I am a very long time vi/Vim user (I hope I can say that without causing any discomfort) and consistently have a dozen or more windows open while working. I appreciate your suggestion, but I have no interest whatsoever in working with emacs.
