I am using ipython Jupyter notebook. Let's say I defined a function that occupies a lot of space on my screen. Is there a way to collapse the cell?
I want the function to remain executed and callable, yet I want to hide / collapse the cell in order to better visualize the notebook. How can I do this?
The jupyter contrib nbextensions
Python package contains a code-folding extension that can be enabled within the notebook. Follow the link (Github) for documentation.
To install using command line:
pip install jupyter_contrib_nbextensions
jupyter contrib nbextension install --user
To make life easier in managing them, I'd also recommend the jupyter nbextensions configurator
package. This provides an extra tab in your Notebook interface from where you can easily (de)activate all installed extensions.
Installation:
pip install jupyter_nbextensions_configurator
jupyter nbextensions_configurator enable --user
