Python Debugging Techniques 🐞

Debugging is essential for identifying and fixing issues in your Python code. Here are common methods and tools:

1. Using print() Statements

• Simple and quick for basic troubleshooting.
• Example:

  print("Value of x:", x)  
  

2. Python Debugger (pdb)

• Interactive tool for step-by-step execution.
• Start with:

  python -m pdb your_script.py  
  

• Use commands like step, next, break, and quit.

3. Assertions

• Validate conditions during development:

  assert x > 0, "x must be positive"  
  

• Helps catch logical errors early.

4. Logging Module

• For more sophisticated debugging in production:

  import logging  
  logging.debug("Debug message")  
  

• Levels: DEBUG, INFO, WARNING, ERROR, CRITICAL.
