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 am learning how to debug codes and would like to debug someone code using dev c++ :D. Not too hard or too simple of a 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 'Is this public key encryption?'
I've tried to intuit public key encryption but never quite managed. But this seems to wrap it up in a bow. This seems to be a very elegant way of transmitting a message publicly that only the sender and receiver can decipher. Is this how PKE works? No, it cant be. In the above case, the requester knows the target's "secret" key - because they have his ID, and therefore knows his birthdate.
