ipython how to execute several history lines

Question

In ipython, we can use

_ih[32:39] 

To show history lines between 32 and 39. How can I directly execute these history lines?

Answer 1

You can execute code from previous sessions with %recall. See %recall documentation here.

#Execute all code from previous session.
%recall ~1/

#Execute all code from two sessions previous the current session.
%recall ~2/

#Execute lines 1 to 5 from previous session.
%recall ~1/1-5
