What is the purpose of exceptions in C++?

• To handle runtime errors

• To introduce new features

What is the main goal of the debugging process?

• To find and fix errors in the code

• To write new code

What is the purpose of hand tracing a program in debugging?

• To simulate program execution

What is the typical lifecycle for a C++ bug during the debugging process?

• Fail, Fix, Test
