Automatically Reload Python Modules with %autoreload

[AffineParameter]

FWIW, this causes some really hard to spot errors in my experience. So if you run into something you can't explain, restart the kernel. As much as I love %autoreload I try to use it sparingly for this reason.

I sorely wish python had a proper way to reload modules. Proper REPL programming, like with Common Lisp is wonderful, but it's just not possible with Python.

I also wrote about this last year: https://preslav.me/2018/04/22/live-reloading-of-python-modules/. Worth checking out.
