This is a problem I experience occasionally while teaching and while developing teaching curriculum.
I tend to close problem windows quickly enough to avoid a computer crash in front of a live audience, but it's still an annoyance to get the REPL state back to the way I had it before killing the process.
This mostly happens when I'm teaching iterators or itertools, but occasionally I hit a "Ctrl-C free zone" in other ways. I believe this memory-filling snippet wouldn't respond to Ctrl-C either: x=[0]*2**30
I hadn't thought to report a bug on this because my use seemed niche. I mostly get this error while demonstrating concepts via weird/incorrect code at the REPL. |
