Python in a Nutshell

The pprint Module

The pprint module pretty-prints complicated data structures, with formatting that may be more readable than that supplied by built-in function repr (see Chapter 8). To fine-tune the formatting, you can instantiate the PrettyPrinter class supplied by module pprint and apply detailed control, helped by auxiliary functions also supplied by module pprint. Most of the time, however, one of the two main functions exposed by module pprint suffices.
