Hi all

When debugging, I sometimes add a 'breakpoint()' to my code to examine
various objects.

However, I often want to know how I got there, so I replace the
'breakpoint()' with a '1/0', to force a traceback at that point. Then I
can rerun the previous step using the extra info from the traceback.

Is there a way to combine these into one step, so that, while in the
debugger, I can find out how I got there?


Not sure if it's what you're looking for, but in the debugger, you can
type "bt" to show a backtrace.


That is exactly what I was looking for :-)

Thanks very much.

Frank
