computer does exactly what you wrote in your program (unless computer or
compiler is faulty which is rare).
so keep localizing your bugs unless you can conclude that certain line of
your code is obviously wrong. try to do same things different ways... split
long/complex expressions which you may not understand into few
smaller/smipler.
well, you're smart enough to do that.
