Topic: debugging with metabob?

Has anyone used Metabob (www.metabob.com) to debug code? I'm wondering if this is a worthwhile thing to download and use for a relatively new python user.

Hi Danica, I haven't actually used it but my first-pass reading through it made me think it was more like a linter and/or static code profiler instead of a real-time debugger. It's free and may be worthwhile to give it a try to see if it can help you reduce potential bugs in the code so that diminish future actual debugging hours. I might be wrong with any of my understandings though.

When it comes to the debugging of an existing bug in the Python code, my personal experience with the PyCharm IDE has been good and sufficient so far.
