Complete Modern C++ - Overview of Debugging in Visual Studio

This video tutorial provides an introduction to debugging in Visual Studio. It covers starting and stopping debugging, using breakpoints, and the importance of remembering shortcuts like F5. The tutorial explains how to use 'step into' and 'step over' functions to navigate through code, and how to examine variables using watch windows. A practical example of debugging a loop to find a logical error is demonstrated, highlighting the use of breakpoints and watch windows. The video concludes with a brief overview of what to expect in future lectures.
