Weird behaviour using if statement in python 3.10.8

[mikepy]

The best way to demonstrate the wrong behavior is to produce an example that allows others to reproduce what you are seeing. So far the only way I can reproduce what is shown in your screenshot is to edit the code condition (change from True to False) after stepping to the print statement.

If you cannot reproduce the behavior in a small example program, it usually means the problem is not what you think it is. I see this is line 92. Maybe there is something odd going on in lines 1-90. I cannot imagine what that might be, but there is nothing wrong with the two lines you posted.

How are you running the debugger? Just using the Run menu -> Start Debugging? What is your debugging configuration?

Exactly, I run the debugger as you mentioned. I will check the debug configuration and maybe there is something wrong there. I will post if I have fixed it. BTW what are the most important configuration in VS Code for the python debugger?

EDIT:
As I can observe the problem is related to VS Code, because when I execute the code in the terminal (Ubuntu 20.04.LTS), the code runs properly. I will check further the settings and come back later.
