In the "Python Book Recommendations [Was:[Re: Security]]" thread,
Chris Calloway included a link to the American Scientist article,
"Where's the Real Bottleneck in Scientific Computing?". In that
article I saw a term, "symbolic debugger", I had been wondering
about for a while. Google was of little help (to me, at least), and
searching Wikipedia on "symbolic debugger" gets me the Debugger
article "Redirected from Symbolic debugger". I'm beginning to think
that the debugger I want to learn, WinPdb, is also a symbolic
debugger, but what's "symbolic" about it?
Thanks,
Dick Moores
