Description
Cells are separated by lines starting with:
#%% (standard cell separator)
# %% (standard cell separator, when file has been edited with Eclipse)
# <codecell> (IPython notebook cell separator)
But pycodestyle consider #%% a block comment which should start as # and space by E265
Please consider. Thanks!
