Matlab and ipython notebook are totally different things
2 comments

Nobody mentioned notebook in this thread. Maybe you clicked reply the wrong place? Spyder is the Python IDE that takes after matlab, not ipython notebook.
Nobody said it in this thread, but it was stated in the article:

> You can think of it as an alternative UI to the notebook for the IPython Kernel

Yes, but they both take inspiration from how Xerox PARC and Symbiotic REPLs used to work, or more close to modern days Dr Scheme/Racket.
