Hi, I am wondering a good way to follow if i would like to redefine the members of a previous defined class in ipython. say : I have defined a class intro like below, and later i want to redefine part of the function definition _print_api. Any way to do that without retyping it .

class intro(object):
   def _print_api(self,obj):
           def _print(key):
                   if key.startswith('_'):
                           return ''
                   value = getattr(obj,key)
                   if not hasattr(value,im_func):
                           doc = type(valuee).__name__
                   else:
                           if value.__doc__ is None:
                                   doc = 'no docstring'
                           else:
                                   doc = value.__doc__
                   return '        %s      :%s' %(key,doc)
                   res = [_print(element) for element in dir(obj)]
                   return '\n'.join([element for element in res if element != ''])
   def __get__(self,instance,klass):
           if instance is not None:
                   return self._print(instance)
           else:
                   return self._print_api(klass)
