Debugging, Stack Traces & Error Handling
Read stack traces like a senior engineer, set debugger breakpoints, and prevent software crashes with try/catch exception handling.
The Three Categories of Software Bugs
1Syntax Errors: Grammar mistakes that prevent the code from compiling or parsing (e.g. missing brackets).
2Runtime Errors: Crashes that occur while the program is executing (e.g. division by zero, null pointer dereference).
3Logic Errors: The code runs without crashing, but outputs mathematically or logically incorrect results.
