Sometimes, when you are given a piece of code, it works well and you want to learn from it. Reading through the code is not always that helpful if done all at once. It is too much to process. Looking at the results leaves you unaware of the process used to get there. This video shows how using the debugger to walk through the code can make it very clear what was done to accomplish the end goal.
