Using Diagnostic Tools and Historical Debugging
The trusty old bug has been the bane of software developers and engineers for more than 140 years. Yes, you read that right. It was in fact Thomas Edison that coined the term "bug" in the late 1870s. It appeared in many of his notebook entries where he describes for example that the incandescent lightbulb still had many "bugs left."

He and his seven-person team (it is a common misconception that there were only six because the seventh member didn't appear in the group photograph) became known as the insomnia squad during a 5-week stint that resulted in very little sleep.
These days, thanks to advances in technology, software developers have a vast array of debugging tools (inside and outside of Visual Studio) at their disposal. So does debugging...
