Docs: Add cookbook recipe on how to execute some bytecode?

[Chr1s-T]

If I deploy a contract with Solidity, and get its bytecode. Can I execute the bytecode with py-evm?

[cburgdorf]

Yes, that should be possible. I'm afraid we are lacking a good example in our docs. I will admit that we should add one to our cookbook.

Maybe this test can serve as a good starting point for your further investigations?
