Compro2 (Midterm) Exception

It is the process of identifying and rectifying errors in a program that leads to unexpected behavior.

(a)  

To successfully identify and understand the symptoms of the issue in the code, such as crashes, error messages, or unexpected behaviors.

(a)  

Once the symptoms are identified, the root cause of the problem should be taken care of. This can be done by tracing the code’s execution and discovering specific lines creating the issue

(a)  

Once the issue is identified, necessary changes and corrections should be made to remove the problem and ensure that codes work correctly

(a)  

It is vital to fully understand the problem being solved before making changes to the code. Without it, time will just be wasted, and solutions can be ineffective.

Tools for debugging can help give valuable insights into how the code functions, including variables and memory usage, that help save time.

• Understanding the Problem

• Binary Search

• Backtracking

• Debugging Tools

it starts from the point the problem first began and works backward through the code to find out how and why it happened.

• Understanding the Problem
