AI Assistant as a Code Debugger
Explore how an AI assistant acts as your personal code debugger by helping you find and fix syntax, logic, and type errors. This lesson guides you through understanding bugs, applying fixes suggested by AI, and validating solutions through testing to improve code quality and build debugging skills.
AI’s role in code debugging
We previously learned to test code with the AI assistant’s help. Now, it’s time to work on the errors/bugs we’ve encountered.
Debugging allows us to fix any issues revealed by the tests and refine our program to work correctly in all scenarios. This process is a crucial learning step, as it helps us understand how our code behaves, identify the root cause of issues, and apply practical solutions. Debugging can be challenging, especially for beginners who may not yet know how to interpret error messages or spot mistakes in their code. This is another use case where an AI coding assistant can help us find and resolve errors ...
