* Objectives
  At the end of this tutorial, you will be able to,
 
  - Retrieve your ipython history. 
  - View a part of the history. 
  - Save a part of your history to a file. 
  - Run a script from within ipython. 
* Pre-requisite
  Spoken tuorial on -
  - Embellishing a Plot
* Exercise 1
  Read through the documentation of =%hist= and find out how to
  list all the commands between 5 and 10.
* Exercise 2
  Change the label on y-axis to "y" and save the lines of code
  accordingly
* Exercise 3
  Use =%hist= and =%save= and create a script that has the function show()
  in it.Run the script to produce the plot and display the same.

* Exercise 4
  Run the script without using the -i option. Do you find any
  difference?
* Solution 4
  We see that it raises ~NameError~ saying the name ~linspace~ is not
  found.
* Summary
  In this tutorial, we have learnt to –
  - Retrieve the history using =%hist= command.
  - View only a part of history by passing an argument to %hist.
  - Save the required lines of code in required order using %save command.
  - Use %run -i command to run the saved script.
* Evaluation
  1. How do you retrieve the recent 5 commands

    - ``%hist``
    - ``%hist -5``
    - ``%hist 5``
    - ``%hist 5-10``

  2. How do you save the lines 2 3 4 5 7 9 10 11

    - ``%save filepath 2-5 7 9-11``
    - ``%save filepath 2-11``
    - ``%save filepath``
    - ``%save 2-5 7 9 10 11``

  3. What will the command ``%hist 5 10`` display.

    - The recently typed commands from 5 to 10 inclusive of 
      the history command	
    - The recently typed commands from 5 to 10 excluding 
      the history command
* Solutions
  1. %hist 5

  2. %save filepath 2-5 7 9-11

  3. %hist 5 10
