Re: (redmist) Re: Are debugging skills atrophying?

That's a good strategy when you're working on your own stuff, but I wager you'll need a bigger bag of tricks when working on a multi-100KLoc probject with over a dozen developers.

At some point in every project I've ever been on, there's a BUG that wasn't foreseen or caught by careful iterative development and testing. Then the fun begins.

Although I've been coding Perl (actually coding period) ,for only about 6 mos, I've already learned the value in coding in small snippets, as well as the use of print statements....(I throw them everywhere in cgi forms...etc), it helps me to see if what I think I have ....I have. But perl -d is still cryptic.....	[reply]
