# debug
`debug` prints a debugging view of the table data. It is useful when you want to get the specific types of the data and while investigating errors.
## Examples
```shell
> ls | first 2 | debug
───┬──────────────────────────────────────────
# │
───┼──────────────────────────────────────────
0(name=".azure"
type="Dir"
size=nothing
modified=2020-02-09T05:31:39.950305440Z((B
│ mdate))
1(name=".cargo"
type="Dir"
size=nothing
modified=2020-01-06T05:45:30.933303081Z((B
│ mdate))

```
```shell
