Sometimes it is handy to use a same variable name in different cells. For example, I want to test several differenty ways to interpolation a function. I will define a interpolation instance in one cell, say begin spl = Interpolation1() plot(x, spl(x)) end and later I want to test another inter…

Your concrete example will work if you replace begin with let, thus creating a local scope for spl. But this is only a solution when the variable is only needed inside the cell, not outside.

Does anyone find it is a bit annoying that Pluto.jl does not let you reuse variable in different cells?

Yes,

but I understand the reason why authors did not permit it.
