If your set S is occurring in a (Python) function call and you are at the Sage command-line, then you can do Ctrl-C to stop the computation, type in "%debug" to enter the debugger, enter "u" until you move up the call stack until you are at the place where your S is defined. Then, you can do "print S" to have it print the set. There may be trickier ways of manipulating the stack frame, but I don't know offhand what they are. --Mike -- To post to this group, send email to sage-support@googlegroups.com To unsubscribe from this group, send email to sage-support+unsubscr...@googlegroups.com For more options, visit this group at http://groups.google.com/group/sage-support URL: http://www.sagemath.org

Hi It depends on precisely what form your code takes. If you're running the loop at the top level with S as a global variable then you should be able to do ctrl-c to terminate the computation and then look at S or any other global variable. If your computations happening inside a function call then I don't know of any way round it.
