Challenge Problems

Push your limits with advanced challenges

Challenge 1 Hard

Suppose you set a conditional breakpoint that stops when a variable 'x' exceeds 10, but you are getting unexpected Halting at an integer less than 10. What might you check in your code?

💡 Hint: Review each line leading up to the conditional statement for possible issues.

Challenge 2 Hard

Create a scenario where both a syntax error and a run-time error occur in an M-file. Explain how you would address each.

💡 Hint: Think about what types of errors are frequent in programming.
