This is probably an easy one. When I was writing Matlab m-files, I really enjoyed the ability to stop the code to check how values were being stored or to 'step' into a function with the keyboard function.
I have numerous 'environments'? as part of Python (x,y) including IDLE, Eclipse, and Spyder. I know that Spyder is very Matlab esque, but I prefer to use Eclipse as my programs up to this point have not been mathematics based. To do what I want In Spyder I paste a portion of my program and click the run icon. The interactive console then allows me to proceed through the next lines manually so that I can get real-time feedback. This is really helpful in understanding what I'm doing with OOP as I'm learning from a book and would like to follow along just like it is written which is usually a few lines at a time. Is there a way in Eclipse to do the same thing so I am not switching between environments? When I try the same thing it just terminates at the end of the code. (I am following the learning python for absolute beginners book. I love Python btw, it is very easy to use IMO, and has the muscle to do some really cool things.) _______________________________________________ Tutor maillist - Tutor@python.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor
