Function Details: repr

Description

Returns a string containing a printable representation of an object.

Extended Description

The repr() function returns a string containing a printable representation of an object. For many types, this function makes an attempt to return a string that would yield an object with the same value when passed to eval(). If this is not possible, a string of the form <...some useful description...> is returned. repr() is often used for debugging as it provides more information about the object than str().
