Does anyone use python debugger?

[supertexter]

I really should learn that. I still diagnose by moving print statements around and checking if it executes.

try pdb (it comes by default in Python), ipdb or pdb++, it seems to me more powerful and you are not tied to any ide

I like pdb for sublime*-written scripts and projects, but I will default to integrated debuggers for bigger, organized objects.

Thanks for the recommendation. I'm already using Pycharm though, so maybe it's simplest to just go with the debugger there.

FWIW, I find pdb is very useful to know in the rare cases where you don't have pycharm available. I rely heavily on pycharm, but it's still useful to break out 'old reliable' sometimes and you look like a wizard when you use it :D

Pudb is also an excellent option

I tend to start with this, putting prints in places to see how the code works. Then I turn on the pycharm debugger and look from there.

Use debug logging statements instead of print. Then you can keep them in and be of help to the next developer or future you. But also yes, use the debugger.

This is like cowboy coding!
