Re: [Python-ideas] f-string "debug" conversion

This would be used in debugging print statements, that currently end up looking like:

print(f'value={value!r}')

and would now be:

print(f'{value!d}')

It seems to me that a short form for keyword arguments would improve this situation too. So instead of your suggestion one could do:

print(dict(=value))

And of course this feature wouldn’t be a minor feature on f-strings but a feature that is generally useful and composable so the above could be improved:

def debug(**kwargs): for k, v in kwargs.items(): print(f’{k}={v}’)

debug(=value, =another)
