After import functions into ipython, how do I reload them when I have modified them outside of ipython ?

Simple solution: Use the autoreload to make sure the latest version of the module is used. The autoreloading module is not enabled by default. So you have to load it as an extension. And each time you execute some code, IPython will reimport all the modules to make sure that you are using the latest possible versions.
Python ProgrammingThe reload() is used to reload a previously imported module or loaded module. This comes handy in a situation where you repeatedly run a test script during an interactive session, it always uses the first version of the modules we are developing, even we have made changes to the code.
IPython extension to reload modules before executing user code. autoreload reloads modules automatically before entering the execution of code typed at the IPython prompt.
Python 2:
reload(module) Python 3:
from importlib import reload reload(module) Where module is the file with your functions.
