That is to make you feel much more silly that you didn't
|
|
see what you were doing wrong. Usually this clear thinking
|
|
happens about 5 minutes after posting. So, in fact, you
|
|
were late :-)
|
|
|
|
But it's a general way to debug: tell someone what right things
|
|
your program is doing. Chances are that you will see the wrong
|
|
thing(s) before the other person has said anything...
|
|
|
|
I just stick a picture of a face on my monitor and talk to
|
|
it to find bugs.
|

Richard.
