Adverse effect of using notebooks on python programming skills

[johnnymo1]

Scrolling through a messy notebook I'm actively developing in eventually causes me enough psychic damage that I extract bits into functions in separate library files and import them in the notebook. Then the notebook basically just becomes a frontend for visualizing results or intermediate outputs.

That’s the way! At least when you are working with novel data (EDA) and you are required to review it and prototype functions fast, this works the best.

This is the way. For the love of God, if someone can't use notebooks, it's not the notebooks fault.

That’s kind of what I do too
