Display multiple images in one IPython Notebook cell?

Question

If I have multiple images (loaded as NumPy arrays) how can I display the in one IPython Notebook cell?

I know that I can use plt.imshow(ima) to display

Answer 1

You can display multiple images in one IPython Notebook cell by using display and HTML functions. You need to create the set of html img tags as a string as follows

from IPython.display import Image, HTML, display
from glob import glob
imagesList=''.join( ["" % str(s) 
                 for s in sorted(glob('yourimage*.png')) ])
display(HTML(imagesList))

See a example of use from http://nbviewer.ipython.org/github/PBrockmann/Dodecahedron

You may need to refresh your browser (shift + load) to see new images if they have been changed from a previous cell.
