Hi, I’m new to the Julia community and I have a question about how to use REPL to interface with my scripts.

In Matlab, it’s easy to get into a folder and, for example, set a sequence of scripts called A.m B.m and C.m.

Let’s say A.m loads a bunch of csv files into matrices in the memory  
B.m is a processing script with manipulates those matrices somehow  
C.m is a cleanup script which plots data, saves figures, makes reports, etc.

Usually, I’m able to load A.m once in my workspace and keep iterating on B.m in any way I want, using “clear” on unwanted variables as I go.

Can I do that same workflow in Julia? Clearly, I can’t simply type “B ” in REPL and make it call B.jl in the folder.

Also, even if I can “include(“B.jl”)” or run() somehow, is does Julia have “clear” to control what things I want removed from the current “workspace”?

Thank you so much in advance!
