Debugging Strategies
The following will assist in the task of finding bugs:
- make the bug reproducible
- search for patterns in the failure
- divide and conquer (isolate the buggy region)
- write self-checking code (e.g.
assert)
- write a log file (execution trace)
- draw a picture (esp. for pointer bugs)
