What are some effective tools for debugging Python code?

There are several great tools for debugging Python code, including PDB, PyCharm, and Visual Studio Code. Would you like to know more about any specific tool?

Can you explain how to use PDB?

Sure! PDB is the built-in debugger for Python. You can start it by adding import pdb; pdb.set_trace() in your code. This will pause execution and allow you to inspect variables and step through your code.

PyCharm offers a powerful graphical debugger. You can set breakpoints by clicking in the gutter next to the line numbers, and then run your code in debug mode to step through it.

Are there any command-line tools for debugging?

Yes, besides PDB, you can use tools like pyringe and pdb++, which enhance the command-line debugging experience with additional features.
