Documentation/Debugging

Debugging is an essential part of the development process. It helps developers identify and fix issues in their code. Below are some common debugging techniques and tools that you can use.

Common Debugging Techniques

• Print Statements: Use console.log or similar to print values at different points in your code.
• Breakpoints: Set breakpoints in your code to pause execution and inspect variables.
• Debugging Tools: Use browser developer tools or IDE debugging features to step through your code.

Debugging Tools

• Chrome DevTools: Learn more about Chrome DevTools.
• VS Code Debugging: Set up debugging in VS Code.

Example

Here's a simple example of using console.log to debug a JavaScript function:

function add(a, b) {
    console.log('Adding', a, 'and', b);
    return a + b;
}

console.log(add(2, 3)); // Output: Adding 2 and 3

Debugging Best Practices

• Isolate the Problem: Narrow down the part of the code that is causing the issue.
• Use Comments: Leave comments to explain why you're adding certain debugging statements.
• Test Incrementally: Make small changes and test to see if the problem persists.

Debugging Example

Remember, debugging is a skill that improves with practice. Don't get discouraged if you're not able to solve a problem right away. Keep practicing and you'll get better at it!
