Debugging Python with pdb at the command line
In this video I briefly show how to debug a function interactively at the command line using the standard pdb library.
The commands I use are:
- list (lists the code)
- s (steps through)
- p (print the current value of a variable)
- n (moves through code, without going through function definitions)
- break (create a break point or view current break points)
- c (continues until reaching an enabled break point)
- disable (disable a break point)
- enable (enable a break point)
- clear (delete a break point)
- tbreak (create a temporary break point)
finally I also talked about the very useful ability to create break points that only work for given conditions.
