python - How to exit pdb and allow program to continue? -

i'm using pdb module debug program. i'd understand how can exit pdb , allow program continue onward completion. program computationally expensive run, don't want exit without script attempting complete. continue doesn't seems work. how can exit pdb , continue program?

continue should "continue execution, stop when breakpoint encountered", you've got breakpoint set somewhere. remove breakpoint (if inserted manually):

(pdb) break num type         disp enb   1   breakpoint   keep yes   @ /path/to/test.py:5 (pdb) clear 1 deleted breakpoint 1 (pdb) continue 

or, if you're using pdb.set_trace(), can try (although if you're using pdb in more fancy ways, may break things...)

(pdb) pdb.set_trace = lambda: none  # replaces set_trace() function! (pdb) continue # no more breaks!
