How does a bug in code break a program?
You click "run" and… nothing. The screen freezes. The game crashes. Somewhere in the code, there's a bug — a mistake so small it might be one wrong letter, but powerful enough to stop the whole program cold. How does that happen?
Code is a list of instructions the computer follows exactly, step by step, like a recipe. "Add these two numbers." "Draw a circle here." "If the player presses space, make the character jump." The computer doesn't think or improvise — it just does what you wrote, in order, no questions asked.
