Honest question, does anyone ever reuse the notebooks they receive with their data or is it just a matter of you could if you wanted but we don't ?

- miemo 7y agoThat was my first though :) Can't imagine trying to pump my data into someone elses pipeline and crossing my fingers for results!
- na85 7y agoThe whole point is reproducibility. If you don't understand someone else's pipeline then you can't hope to reproduce their results.
- BeetleB 7y agoYes. In a previous job I had set up a notebook to analyze some of the models our team produced - it was essentially a Q/A notebook that generated data from our models, algorithmically looked for unphysicalities in our models, and plotted any it found. The rest of my team used it for the models they were working on. The alternative/old way was just too painful (lots of manual steps). But although reuse by others is a touted feature, it's not really that important. It's incredibly useful for one's own workflow. Think of the convoluted Excel sheets people often have at engineering companies. They get new data, copy and paste it into Excel, and get new plots. This is no different.
