The pprint module is also very handy:
>>> import pprint
>>> pprint.pprint({'x': 1, 'y': 2})
{'x': 1, 'y': 2}
(The ordering is controlled by the pprint module; it will be sorted by
the keys.)
The pprint.pprint function's width argument is also helpful at times:
>>> pprint.pprint({'x': 1, 'y': 2}, width=1)
{'x': 1,
'y': 2}
