> **Mark Andrews** (@xmjandrews; 1/0): @xieyihui @Heinonmatti @rstudio I've just tried it out and now there's persistence between Python chunks. That makes a huge difference in how Python can be used with knitr and RMarkdown.
Is Python inline code possible?  [&#8618;](https://twitter.com/xieyihui/status/947105813251977218)

> **matti heino** (@Heinonmatti; 0/0): @xmjandrews @xieyihui @rstudio Just to check; when I knit a plot with https://t.co/W5XFpMUegO(), I get a popup window with the plot but no plot in the knitted document. Is this expected, should I rather save the plot and tell knitr to retrieve the saved file?  [&#8618;](https://twitter.com/xieyihui/status/947235809597558785)
