About Spyder

Spyder is a free and open source scientific environment written in Python, for Python, and designed by and for scientists, engineers and data analysts.

Editor

Work efficiently in a multi-language editor with a function/class browser, code analysis tools, automatic code completion, horizontal/vertical splitting, and go-to-definition.

IPython Console

Harness the power of as many IPython consoles as you like in one GUI. Run code by line, cell or file; or work interactively with debugging, plots and magic commands.

Variable Explorer

Interact with and modify variables on the fly: plot a histogram or timeseries, edit a dateframe or Numpy array, sort a collection, dig into nested objects, and more!

Plots

Browse, zoom, copy and save the figures and images you create.

Debugger

Trace each step of your code's execution interactively.

Help

Instantly view any object's docs, and render your own.
