If I am in Pdb, I would like to set a temporary variable, for example: (Pdb) r = 1
The 'r' gets interpreted as 'return' by Pdb. Is there a Pdb instruction that guarantees the intended effect, like: (Pdb) let r = 1 I can usually avoid using such variable names, but if I am changing the value of a local variable, it is convenient to be able to make sure that trying to change that variable doesn't unintentionally call a Pdb routine.
