What do you call using print statements to debug code?
- by vgm64
I'm just curious, but is there a name for the process using print statements to debug your code? An example in pseudocode
x=3.2e39
print x
y = function1(x)
print y
z = function2(y)
print z
w = function3(z)
print w
Executation:
3.2e39
3.2e36
NaN
NaN
reveals some bad math in function2. If there's no standard name, what do you call it?
