Does Sage provide any way to see which variables and user-defined functions are currently in memory, like the ls() command in R?

sage: a,b,c,d = var('a,b,c,d')
sage: who
a       b       c       d
sage: whos
Variable   Type          Data/Info
----------------------------------
a          Expression    a
b          Expression    b
c          Expression    c
d          Expression    d

Is it what you want?

Yes, but it's not working on my system (Sage 5.12 running on Ubuntu 13.10.) I just get a name error.

Sorry, I have no idea about that.. my sage: 'Sage Version 5.10, Release Date: 2013-06-17' on openSuSE 12.3

This is not a question of versions, `who` and `whos` are specific to ipython (the command line), they do not work in the notebook.

That would be a great feature to have. I can definitely see using it to debug student (and my own) code.
