Use version control. Then it won't matter if you forget where you made the changes.

The way forward always starts with a minimal test.

Not only does version control let you go back to a previous version, you can diff your current version against an earlier version and see exactly where you made changes. For an error of the OP's sort you can usually then look at a few lines around the change areas and quickly spot the issue.

Use version control. Whether a beginner developer or someone who's inherited someone else's code, learning how to use a VCS should be step 0.	[reply]
