# --- REFLECTION -------------------------------------------------------
# Write your reflection below as a comment.
#Which error was the most difficult to read?
#The error for me that was the most difficult was probably the first argument error.  It took me a second to figure out how to analyze it and fix it.
#How did you figure out what the issue with the error was?
# I used the hints in the error message to break down the error and try and focus on the lines that were causing the problems.  Once I was able to figure out where the error was I was able to figure out how to fix it pretty easy.
#Were you able to determine why each error message happened based on the code?
# Yes.  I was able to use the terms in the error message to isolate the error in the code.
#When you encounter errors in your future code, what process will you follow to help you debug?
# I think that utilizing the error message, finding the error line number and seeing what type of error it is will help me figure out how to isolate the bug and solve it.
