I write a simple script, plotex.jl to produce a plot: using Plots pyplot() # Switch to using the PyPlot.jl backend plot1 = plot(rand(10,10),linewidth=2,title=“Plot 1”) display(plot1) When I type the code manually into REPL the plot shows immediately after the last line. The plot also shows immedia…

I am guessing that is you start a fresh REPL and include the file/run the code, it will also take about 27 seconds for the plot to appear. The code must compile before it runs, and Plots.jl is notoriously slow to compile. Once it has compiled, it is fast. If you already ran it once in the REPL, it…

Executing scripts in Julia is a little different than Python (for example). I would use the workflow of loading all the packages you need in the REPL first, and then you can repeatedly include your source file to run the script over and over. Or even better, you can put everything in your script in …
