Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

Write a short program that has at least three types of breakpoints set in it. Describe what each breakpoint captures.

πŸ’‘ Hint: Consider how each breakpoint serves a different purpose.

Question 2

Imagine debugging a program where a variable does not store the expected value after several computations. Design a strategy using breakpoints to isolate the point of failure.

πŸ’‘ Hint: Think about where changes to the variable occur and the values you expect.
