I've done this before, but more directed at general software development as a sort of documented reproducible and resumable state. Ask me anything :) I never got good at tangling my blocks together in the end though which is what I think would have made this method really powerful.

  It was kind of more like coming up with organized snippets and notes while understanding a problem. I'm expressing the wish that were I better at organizing them better that I could have tangled all of those snippets into a working (if ugly) source file and work from there. Does that make sense?

    Ohh I see, yeah. I usually draw diagrams or write pseudo-code out on paper (or both combined) when trying to grasp something difficult but "notebook-style" exploration also sounds interesting.
