Debugging

It is very common to make mistakes while programming in any language. Fortunately, python is able to
recognize lots of types of mistakes and tell us what the problem is. The process of identifying and fixing
errors, or bugs, in your code is called debugging. It is very important to learn to debug your code, no matter
how much experience you have programming you will inevitably make a mistake, you must learn to
efficiently identify and fix your mistakes.

Let's go through a few examples

1. Run some code that doesn't work


2. Look at python's output from our mistakes
3. Identify the problem
4. Fix the problem
