Debugging Practice

Possible bugs:

• typos
• missing end
• mismatch of datatypes
• nil errors
• = instead of ==
• symbol vs. string keys in hash (though students probably won't know hashes yet)
• various uses of the [ ] method: [1] vs. [something] vs. ["something"] (though students may not know arrays yet)
• various uses of the ( ) argument parens: (something) vs. ("something"), and referring to those within the method definition

Students will know/be familiar with at this point:

• methods/scope
• arrays (maybe... depends on how the day is structured)
• datatypes
• variables
• strings + string interpolation
• conditionals
• loops
• NO CLASSES
