The repr module provides a means for producing object
representations with limits on the size of the resulting strings. This is used in the Python
debugger and may be useful in other contexts as well.
This module provides a class, an instance, and a function:
-
- Class which provides formatting services useful in implementing functions similar to the
built-in repr(); size limits for different object types are
added to avoid the generation of representations which are excessively long.
- aRepr
- This is an instance of Repr which is used to provide the repr() function described below. Changing the attributes of this
object will affect the size limits used by repr() and the Python
debugger.
-
- This is the repr() method of
aRepr. It returns a
string similar to that returned by the built-in function of the same name, but with limits
on most sizes.
