AI Thread Summary
When learning to debug code in Dev C++, it's essential to understand your development environment and the debugging tools at your disposal. Key aspects of effective debugging include monitoring variable values during code execution to ensure they align with expectations. Good debuggers, such as gdb, Visual Studio, Eclipse, and Code::Blocks, provide features to inspect these variable values, which is crucial for identifying and resolving issues in the code.

I'm pretty sure gdb can do that, as well as Visual Studio. Probably others like Eclipse, Code::Blocks, etc., do the same.

The new feature was a .csv importer for Geometry nodes. Geometry nodes are a method of modelling that uses a node tree to create 3D models which offers more flexibility than straight modeling does. The .csv importer node allows you to bring in a .csv file and use the data in it to control aspects of your model. So for example, if you...

Thread 'Who is responsible for the software when AI takes over programming?'

I tried a web search "the loss of programming ", and found an article saying that all aspects of writing, developing, and testing software programs will one day all be handled through artificial intelligence. One must wonder then, who is responsible. WHO is responsible for any problems, bugs, deficiencies, or whatever malfunctions which the programs make their users endure? Things may work wrong however the "wrong" happens. AI needs to fix the problems for the users. Any way to...
