title: Is there something you can put in your code which starts an interactive interperter (in python)
body: <p>The idea is to be able to run the code normally, except it will start an interactive interpreter in the given scope when it gets to a particular method call. Sort of like stopping at a breakpoint to run code.</p>
  
  <p>Ideally, if you are already in an interpreter like ipython, it would return to that interpreter, except with access the current scope in addition to the interpreter scope.</p>
