# Author: Fred L. Drake, Jr. # fdrake@acm.org # # This is a simple little module I wrote to make life easier. I didn't # see anything quite like it in the library, though I may have overlooked # something. I wrote this when I was trying to read some heavily nested # tuples with fairly non-descriptive content. This is modeled very much # after Lisp/Scheme - style pretty-printing of lists. If you find it # useful, thank small children who sleep at night. """Support to pretty-print lists, tuples, & dictionaries recursively. Very simple, but useful, especially in debugging data structures. Classes ------- PrettyPrinter() Handle pretty-printing operations onto a stream using a configured set of formatting parameters. Functions --------- pformat() Format a Python object into a pretty-printed representation. pprint() Pretty-print a Python object to a stream [default is sys.stdout]. saferepr() Generate a 'standard' repr()-like value, but protect against recursive data structures.
