This release comes five weeks after version 4.1.2 and it contains the following new features and important fixes:

    • New dark and light themes for the Online Help pane.
  • Important fixes

    • Make Spyder work on Python 3.8 and Windows.
    • Fix several startup crashes related to problems with Kite.
    • Fix contrast issues present in several syntax highlighting themes.
    • Fix “Directly enter debugging when errors appear” run option.
    • Fix startup crash when Spyder is using the Brazilian Portuguese translation.
    • Fix segfault on Unix systems when removing plots.
    • Correctly position linting markers when code is folded in the editor.
    • Correctly show variables while debugging in the Variable Explorer.

In this release we fixed 46 issues and merged 65 pull requests that amount to more than 230 commits. For a full list of fixes, please see our Changelog.

Hey, i have installed the new version Spyder 4 and facing an issue

This is my script:

import pandas as pd

a=input("Enter Y/N:")
if a=="Y":
    DataFrame=pd.DataFrame()
    print ("Empty Data Frame created")
    
print(DataFrame)

if i execute with "Y" for the first time im able to print DataFrame (Empty) mean while DataFrame is stored in variable explorer 
which means when ever we call DataFrame it will fetch from variable explorer
but if i execute for the second time with "N" condition, im getting "NameError: name 'DataFrame' is not defined"
at the same time if i execute print(DataFrame) alone it works

where as same script is working in old spyder 3.1 version.

pls suggest or clarify why DataFrame is not able identify in new version
