Re: prototype board options

I think I need some more definition about what this technique is.
Setting a break and stepping or tracing through a long loop a hundred or thousand times isn't an approach I'd normally take, if I could possibly avoid it. This certainly isn't a technique I'd train anyone else on. 

:-)

I've never encountered this phrase in reference to breakpoint debugging,
so it must be a "local idiom".



I've heard this phrase and similar ones since the '70s, mostly from comp-sci
and mainframe programmer operators trained in the technique, as well as most
accomplished knitters.
