Don’t forget the programming socks trans girl programmer
Probably tye second one tbh
Ten years into casual programming and I still don’t know how to use a debugger.
It’s easy, you just step, step, step, step in, or wait, over, or, oops.
Watch a Video or read something because it really is an invaluable tool. But here’s a crash course:
Debuggers, or IDEs, let you step through your code in slo-mo so you can see what is happening.
- Set a breakpoint - Click to the left of a line of code so a red dot appears. Run your program, and the IDE will execute to that line, then pause.
- Look at variables’ values - While the execution is paused you can hover over variables before that line to see their value.
- Step through the code - See what happens next in slo-mo.
- Use “Step Into” to enter into a function and see what that code does.
- Use “Step Over” to not go into a function and continue in the current spot after the function has done its business.
- Use “Step Out” to exit a function and pick up the execution after it has run. Use this when you’re in too deep and the code stops making sense.
- See whats in the heap - The heap will list all the functions that you’re currently inside of. You can jump to any of those points by clicking them.
- Set a watch - Keep a variable in the watch so you can see what its value is at all times.
- Set a condition on the breakpoint - If the breakpoint is inside a big loop, you can right-click on the red dot to create a conditional breakpoint, so you write something like x===3 and it will only pause when x is 3.
There are many other things an IDE can do to help you, so def look into it more if you want to save yourself a lot of insanity. But this is a good starting point.
If you’re developing for the web use F12 to open web tools, and when an error happens, click the file/line number to see that point in the Sources tab, and you can debug there.
Thank you for writing this out
That sounds really cool
Good my colleagues think I am Hackerman that can hack through time!
That image goes so incredibly hard
Dude, literally me. Whenever my friends or my brother’s friend come to my room, I opened up a few terminals with only one of them is actually for coding and they thoight I could hack someone’s Facebook account or something LMAO.
Yes I live in Southeast Asia
Kung Fury will never not be amazing
I identify with Samir, but without all of his vast knowledge.
Father, I want to see the face of VBA god
Samir is mad op, those indian youtubers know everything
What I want to know is who taught the original Indian YouTube tutor. Was he born with the knowledge?
The goddess Namagiri.
I have worked with most of these people at one point or another. I used to sit next to an old architect like walters. He had so many patents the company only recognize him on every 10th one.
I have seen this meme at least 471 times, it’s still as funby as the first time.
I’m Samir, I can code kernel drivers in vba
I can really emphasise with Samir. Working in healthcare I’m basically limited to just the Office applications. However in the past few years I’ve been able to cook up solutions by reading / writing to file based databases, and using VBA to generate and bind to HTML contents on the fly for the built in IE11 instance. It’s as close to getting to some kind of web-stack within the confines of IT Sec in healthcare.
Just a heads up, I think the word you’re looking for is empathize.
I’m halfway between ~mfhwalters and Tharg
What is this meme about? “Competition”, “Leaderboard”, “Waiting for the timer to hit 0:00”? I am so confused.
It’s about the feeling when people are a milion times more skilled in your field
As someone with ADHD I am a mix of hackerman and tharg. Unfortunately the Adderall just makes me barely function and Ive never actually hacked anything
I am Samir
Lesson learned: aim for the manager spot to order those folks around
