hello everybody i am a baby to programing, is there any help forum?
i need a help, if my post is against to the rules please edit it or move it

How is debugging approached in a simple programming environment where the programmer has only the standard output facilities of the programming language to use for this purpose?

What extra facilities to assist in debugging might be provided in a more extensive development environment?

i can not find answers for these two questions and the chapter is yet to start , any helping hand around here? please

Infinite Recursion

To debug a program when all you have is output statements at your disposal, you output the value of your variables and your locations within the code that way, during execution you can follow your code's transgression through your function calls, etc.

The actual debugger and an IDE will assist in debugging in a more extensive development environment.

My suggestion is to read further into the chapter and take a look at google for more info.
