I have a question about the "Using Backslash to Continue Statements" in the
howto "Idioms and Anti-Idioms in Python"
(http://docs.python.org/howto/doanddont.html#using-backslash-to-continue-statements)
It says:

class MyClass:
def __str__(self):
return str(self.__dict__)
def __repr__(self):
If you're looking to debug your program, try "import pdb" and then wherever you
want to debug put:
pdb.set_trace()
Your program will then enter the debugger when it executes that line. It's
quite nice really. If you get confused on what to do, just type "help"
