----------

store_history : bool, optional (default True)

to be False if silent is True.

A dict mapping names to expressions to be evaluated in the user's
dict. The expression values are returned as strings formatted using
:func:`repr`.
allow_stdin : bool, optional (default self.allow_stdin)
Flag for whether the kernel can send stdin requests to frontends.
Some frontends (e.g. the Notebook) do not support stdin requests.
