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.

Generally speaking, I would first ask what is your development environment? What debugging tools are available to you?

The most telling things to look at are variable values during execution: are they what you think they should be? Any good debugger should give you variable values during execution. I'm pretty sure gdb can do that, as well as Visual Studio. Probably others like Eclipse, Code::Blocks, etc., do the same.

Thread 'Microsoft Technical Interview question'

I was not able to figure this out during the interview, but I have been look in this all weekend and I read something online that said it can be done at O(N) using something called the counting sort histogram algorithm ( I did not learn that in my advanced data structures and algorithms class). I have watched some youtube...
