title: How to use a Github .py file on a jupyter notebook stored locally
body: <p>I have a locally stored jupyter notebook  in which I would like to use the .py file here : 
  <a href="https://gist.github.com/YohanObadia/b310793cd22a4427faaadd9c381a5850#file-knn_impute-py" rel="nofollow noreferrer">https://gist.github.com/YohanObadia/b310793cd22a4427faaadd9c381a5850#file-knn_impute-py</a></p>
  
  <p>Can I do that ? Can I do that without downloading the .py file on my computer ?</p>
  
  <p>I tried :</p>
  
  <p>%load <a href="https://gist.github.com/YohanObadia/b310793cd22a4427faaadd9c381a5850#file-knn_impute-py" rel="nofollow noreferrer">https://gist.github.com/YohanObadia/b310793cd22a4427faaadd9c381a5850#file-knn_impute-py</a></p>
  
  <p>but it returned a cell filled with the html formatted code in the .py file.</p>
  
  <p>What I would like  to do is to invoke the functions in the code displayed at the url <a href="https://gist.github.com/YohanObadia/b310793cd22a4427faaadd9c381a5850#file-knn_impute-py" rel="nofollow noreferrer">https://gist.github.com/YohanObadia/b310793cd22a4427faaadd9c381a5850#file-knn_impute-py</a> without having to download the .py file corresponding to the url.</p>
