Best Strategies for Debugging Complex Code

Isolate the issue by breaking down the code into smaller sections and testing each part individually.

Utilize print statements or logging to track variable states and program flow for better insight.

Leverage version control to compare and identify changes that may have introduced bugs.

Reproduce the issue consistently to understand the conditions under which the bug occurs.

Pair programming or code reviews can provide fresh perspectives to spot errors you might have missed.
