๐Ÿ’ฅ One Letter Can Break Your Code!
Today I learned an important lesson while working on my Python homework. I copied some code, ran it, and instantly got a SyntaxError ๐Ÿ˜ฉ After checking line by line, I realized I had accidentally missed one letter โ€” I forgot the โ€œUโ€ in user_age. That tiny mistake completely broke my program. Hereโ€™s the code I was working on ๐Ÿ‘‡ user_age = int(input("Enter your age: ")) if user_age < 16: # Age 15 and under print("Too young.") insurance_price = 0 elif user_age < 25: # Age 16 - 24 insurance_price = 4800 elif user_age < 40: # Age 25 - 39 insurance_price = 2350 else: # Age 40 and up insurance_price = 2100 print(f"Annual price: ${insurance_price}") ๐Ÿ’ก Lesson Learned: Even one missing character can crash your entire program. But finding it and fixing it is what makes you a better coder. Debugging isnโ€™t failure โ€” itโ€™s progress.

One Step at a Time
When it comes to learning something really challenging you have to take small steps and celebrate them as well. Go read my other post under classroom. I posted how one simple mistake can break your entire code. In this example my Python textbook threw a curve ball and wanted me to think that we were starting a different line of code from what I was coding.
