Python breakpoint()
We know that a debugger plays an important role when we want to find a bug in a particular line of code. Here, Python comes with the latest built-in function breakpoint() which does the same thing as pdb.set_trace() in Python 3.6 and below versions. Debugger finds the bug in the code line by line where we add the breakpoint, if a bug is found then the program stops temporarily then you can remove the error and start to execute the code again.
Syntax in Python 3.7
breakpoint()
Syntax in Python 3.6 and below
import pdb; pdb.set_trace()
Debugging Python code using breakpoint() and pdb
While developing an application or exploring some features of a language, one might need to debug the code anytime. Therefore, having an idea of debugging the code is quite necessary. Let’s see some basics of debugging using the built-in breakpoint() function and pdb module.
