Debugging

The key to finding an error is following the process order and tracking statements
lines of code are processed on at a time
when data is being called then the statements will start to stack
When JavaScript runs into an error it will throw an exception and follow up with exception handling code
You can either fix the script directly or use try, catch, throw, and finally statements to catch exceptions
The JavaScript terminal will tell you what the error is and what line its found at
console logs are useful in tracking where exactly your code may be breaking
console.assert() will only executes if the condition that your looking for evaluates to true
You can use breakpoints to stop your script at the designated point
You can then step through your code to see what exactly is going on as you walk through each statement
the debugger key word will insert a breakpoint
