### Dumping expressions at runtime
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
You can dump/trace the value of any V expression using `dump(expr)`.
|
||||||
|
For example, save this code sample as `factorial.v`, then run it with
|
||||||
|
`v run factorial.v`:
|
||||||
|
```v
|
||||||
|
fn factorial(n u32) u32 {
|
||||||
|
if dump(n <= 1) {
|
||||||
|
return dump(1)
|
||||||
|
}
|
||||||
|
return dump(n * factorial(n - 1))
|
||||||
|
}
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
fn main() {
|
||||||
|
println(factorial(5))
|
||||||
|
}
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
You will get:
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
[factorial.v:2] n <= 1: false
|
||||||
|
[factorial.v:2] n <= 1: false
|
||||||
|
[factorial.v:2] n <= 1: false
|
||||||
|
[factorial.v:2] n <= 1: false
|
||||||
|
[factorial.v:2] n <= 1: true
|
||||||
|
[factorial.v:3] 1: 1
|
||||||
|
[factorial.v:5] n * factorial(n - 1): 2
|
||||||
|
[factorial.v:5] n * factorial(n - 1): 6
|
||||||
|
[factorial.v:5] n * factorial(n - 1): 24
|
||||||
|
[factorial.v:5] n * factorial(n - 1): 120
|
||||||
|
120
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
Note that `dump(expr)` will trace both the source location,
|
||||||
|
the expression itself, and the expression value.
