Answer analysis

Option-by-option breakdown

For each option: why learners choose it and why it is or isn't the right answer here.

  • Using a debugger

    Why this is correct

    Debuggers allow stepping through code and inspecting state.

  • Code review

    Why this is correct

    Peer review can identify logical errors and improve code quality.

  • Adding print statements

    Why this is correct

    Print statements help trace program flow and variable values.

  • Reinstalling the operating system

    Why it's wrong here

    Reinstalling the OS is an extreme measure and not relevant to debugging code.

  • Changing the program requirements

    Why it's wrong here

    Changing requirements does not fix existing bugs and may introduce new issues.
