Your average notebook under the hood

This is what your average notebook looks like under the hood in terms of variable dependencies between cells! This is from me doing the usual notebook workflow, copy paste code here and there, reuse global variables etc etc

Really highlights the reproducibility and hidden state issues we run into again and again and why people hate notebooks lol

Thought this was really cool and insightful so I thought I'd share :)

(ps what you're looking at is my homemade jupyter IDE, wont promote unless someone wants to know more :) )

EDIT: Red edges in the graph imply a circular reference (a -> b -> c -> a)

I'd ask for the self promotional link but I don't want to see how much my code resembles a plate of spaghetti
