# # Variable Inspector Widget

# ## A short example implementation

# This notebook demonstrates how one can use the widgets already built-in to IPython to create a working variable inspector much like the ones seen in popular commercial scientific computing environments.

# For this example, hide these names, just to avoid polluting the namespace further
