Spyder console not showing output

Question

I run the following code in Spyder 4.1.1 but the console doesn't show any output :

df.head()
df.shape

Previously I had Spyder 3.7 and it worked but now after updating it is not working. I tried resetting to default settings and tried to change the console settings but nothing worked. If I used print(df.head) it works but it should work without print().

Please help. Attached is the screenshot

Answer 1

Try running the following in the Ipython console.

%config InteractiveShell.ast_node_interactivity='last_expr'

This is the setting description:

ZMQInteractiveShell.ast_node_interactivity=<Enum>

Current: 'last_expr'
Choices: ['all', 'last', 'last_expr', 'none', 'last_expr_or_assign']

'all', 'last', 'last_expr' or 'none', 'last_expr_or_assign' specifying which 
nodes should be run interactively (displaying output from expressions).

Answer 2

You need to highlight what you want to run. Then run/execute the current line/s by either pressing F9, or the Run selection or current line button on the Run toolbar(the black one). It will then show output without needing to use print
