[Tutor] printing variable name and value?

[Emile van Sebille]

Oops, last part of the last line ended up
on the cutting room floor as I cut the
comments out...  s/b

def showvars(*vars):
  import sys
  try:
    1/0
  except ZeroDivisionError:
    callers_globals = sys.exc_info()[2].tb_frame.f_back.f_globals
    callers_locals = sys.exc_info()[2].tb_frame.f_back.f_locals
  if id(callers_locals) == id(callers_globals):
    callers_globals = {}
  varids=[]
  for eachvar in vars:
    varids.append(id(eachvar))
  #found, tofind = 0, len(varids)
  for calling_var_name, calling_var_value in callers_locals.items() +
callers_globals.items():
    if id(calling_var_value) in varids:
      print calling_var_name, " = ", calling_var_value
      #found = found + 1
      #if found == tofind:
        #break
