I doubt you're a coder. If you were you would understand that people rarely write a piece of code right FIRST time. I myself always end up with stupid mistakes at compile-time like a missing semicolon, or some sort of syntax error. Most are easy to fix but then there are times when you haven't written a loop properly or incremented a variable at the right place/etc so you need to spend a while debugging to fix it.

Most of the time something doesn't work and you can spend hours trying to fix it, only to find out finally at the end it was something INCREDIBLY simple. It's frustrating as hell. I once spent about half an hour on a dodgy regex that would NOT work, turns out it was because new-lines aren't counted in .* :(
The previous sentence is false. The following sentence is true.
