A single error in a line of code can cause a computer program to go haywire or stop working entirely. Luckily coding has a process for dealing with errors: debugging. Debugging consists of finding and fixing errors in code. You don't have to work as a coder to develop your debugging skills, though.

โฆ Synopsis
From the simplest applications to the largest networking centers, algorithms are the heartbeat of computer science. The beauty of computers is their ability to automate processes, and algorithms are the tools coders use to make that possible. They employ core computational thinking skills, including logic and problem solving to make software tick. Through a series of thoughtful activities, readers will learn what algorithms are, what they are used for, and how to make their own algorithms using pseudocode and flowcharts. These interactive, game-like projects provide an accessible path to understanding algorithms, even with little or no computer science experience.
