Do you use the assert statement, or do you have a function like this?

def _assert(exp, msg=""):

"""An assert() function.

source: http://www.gamedev.net/community/forums/topic.asp?topic_id=496793"""

if __debug__ and not exp:

import pdb

print "\n_assert failed:\n\t%s\n" % msg # or: simple: print "_assert failed: ", msg

pdb.set_trace()
