sometimes when i am debugging i want to store a variable and display it at the same.\nthe IPython approach set shell.ast_node_interactivity = "last_expr_or_assign".\nadmittedly, i never choose this because i don't want it all the time, just while debugging.

what i do instead is set the variable and append an implicit display at the end.
