Code club on debugging with Python PDB.

#!/usr/bin/python

# import modules used here -- sys is a very standard one
import sys

# Gather our code in a main() function
def main():
  print 'Hello there', sys.argv[1] if len(sys.argv) > 1 else 'Anon'
  # Command line args are in sys.argv[1], sys.argv[2] ..
  # sys.argv[0] is the script name itself and can be ignored

# Standard boilerplate to call the main() function to begin
# the program.
if __name__ == '__main__':
  main()

Debugging in Python

Using PDB.

python -m pdb hello.py

This will give us an interface we can use to debug our script.
