How can I debug Python code in neovim!
I simply use the superb pudb. Press ctrl+e to open the current file at the current line in your editor.

Writing Python Like Rust
such a waste of time...
To this day, I'm baffled by the dynamic language folks who cannot get they head around how strictness/rigor (via a good expressive type system) actually makes maintenance easier and more importantly: cheaper.

What IDE do y’all use
I use the very under-rated pudb in an adjacent terminal window.

What Python debugger do you use?
I've been using PuDB for a while now.

Does anyone use python debugger?
Most of the time I simply use icecream (a much better version of print()), and sometimes, I use pudb (a visual debugger) for tougher/trickier bugs.

What do you use for an IDE and for debugging?
For a quick view etc I usually fire up pudb in an adjacent terminal window but for a detailed/heavy debugging session I fire up VS Code (with the vim plugin of course). I have used vi/vim for 37+ years now so it is part of my DNA and use VS Code only for it's great vim + debugging facility.

What is your favorite ,most underrated 3rd party python module that made your programming 10 times more easier and less code ? so we can also try that out :-) .as a beginner , mine is pyinputplus
Two that I haven’t seen here and have saved me tons of time are pudb, a great debugger and petl a simple powerful ETL toolkit.

Using a debugger in Vim
If you want to debug Python then pudb is simply superb. Vim users don't really want or need to "debug inside of vim" do they? We usually are happy to use multiple command line and other tools in adjacent windows. Also, you can just step around and view variables etc in pudb and then press ctrl+e to edit that file in vim, then q to restart debugger.

Show HN: Dbg.h: C macro for quick and dirty print debugging
Hey, very useful. Thanks! Similar to ic() for python, but with the nice ability to be used inline.

- When you are looking at someone else's code base and you want to make a copy of it to put in a million print statements to understand it, what is good practice in terms of version control and naming the copy?

Pythoneers here, what are some of the best python tricks you guys use when progrmming with python
Icecream is great for this. Just calling ic(foo) gives you the same thing on stderr.

What Python debugger do you use?
I get around this by using loguru (a wrapper around python's logger), so I get information like the calling function and line number with my debugging statements. I don't use it these days (and actually built something extremely similar around the same time), but icecream is another alternative that facilitates debugging-by-print

I found icecream in a post on this subreddit and still use it as an alternative to print for debugging.
