Hi,
There is the __debug__ builtin variable which is equal to True by
default, but is equal to False when Python is run with the -O command
line option.
The compiler removes dead code when -O is used. Example:
$ cat x.py
def func():
if __debug__: print("debug")
import dis
dis.dis(func)
# "debug" constant is checked at runtime
$ python3 x.py
2 0 LOAD_GLOBAL 0 (print)
2 LOAD_CONST 1 ('debug')
4 CALL_FUNCTION 1
6 POP_TOP
8 LOAD_CONST 0 (None)
10 RETURN_VALUE
# code removed by the compiler
$ python3 -O x.py
2 0 LOAD_CONST 0 (None)
2 RETURN_VALUE
