Find Functions Stored in Running Python Kernel

Question

I've done something stupid in Python, in Jupyter notebook. I deleted the cell that had my functions in it, probably a couple of hours ago, and now I don't have them any more. However, I can still run them, so they are still loaded in the kernel.

Is there a way to find that loaded kernel somewhere so I could copy those functions back into my code?

Thanks!

I've looked on the internet for ideas but haven't found anything.

I found how to solve this. The .getsource does the work:

import inspect
lines = inspect.getsource(set_claims_rebates)
print(lines)
