Hello. I wonder what's the effective way of figuring out how a piece of python code works. With C I often find it very useful to be able to run the code in step mode and set breakpoints in a debugger so I can watch how the it executes, how the data change and how the code jumps from one function to another. But with Python, the debugger is a little primitive. The default IDLE doesn't even allow me to set a breakpoint. When the code is long, I am often lost in it.
So I'm curious how to read code effectively. I agree that python code is clear, but when it becomes long, reading it can still be a hard work. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
