Return a string containing a printable representation of an object. This is the
|
||||
same value yielded by conversions (reverse quotes). It is sometimes useful to be
|
||||
able to access this operation as an ordinary function. For many types, this
|

function makes an attempt to return a string that would yield an object with the
|
||||
same value when passed to :func:`eval`.

Return 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 :func:`eval`, otherwise the
|
||||
representation is a string enclosed in angle brackets that contains the name
|
||||
of the type of the object together with additional information often
|
||||
including the name and address of the object. A class can control what this
|
||||
function returns for its instances by defining a :meth:`__repr__` method.
