title: How do I manipulate a variable whose name conflicts with PDB commands?
body: <p>My code is, for better or worse, rife with single letter variables (it's physics stuff, so those letters are meaningful), as well as NumPy's, which I'm often interacting with.  </p>
  
  <p>When using the Python debugger, occasionally I'll want to look at the value of, say, <code>n</code>.  However, when I hit <code>n&lt;enter&gt;</code>, that's the PDB command for <code>(n)ext</code>, which has a higher priority.  <code>print n</code> works around looking at it, but how can I set it?</p>
