I'm not sure how that's hard to debug coldDeath. These kind of things are trivial to catch because you know what you're expecting and you're not getting what you're expecting. *shrug*

In a larger program, typos such as that can cause a bit of trouble because they don't return any errors. But I suppose thats where you'd go to first if you didn't have the correct output.

I use this Vim script to give me tab completion in my favourite editor, which is terribly useful if you can't remember the exact name of a variable, and also helps prevent typos
