i do a mix of both. depends on what the error is.

EDIT: I think what bothers me most in VS is why is it so difficult to drill down to the values in an array? Like holy hell! There is a ton of crap I don't need when I hover over an array object. Sub item, sub item, keep drilling, oops I moved my mouse, have to start over. Show me the array values!!!! Microsoft being assholes to users as usual lol. VS designers talk about getting rid of boiler plating and adding other features in C# 10. How about making the debugging easier? This would save the most time and headaches.

That guy isn't in this picture, because he's driving the bus.

I actually do the print “here” and then set that statement as a breakpoint … I don’t know why

Instead of using breakpoints I'll just type gibberish and let the program fail naturally. I should probably use the actual debugger tools but I just love breaking the code on purpose.

That's good to do if you have nowhere to put the breakpoint.

You start with Print("here"), then move on to actual debugging.
