The Debugger

• Many debuggers also have "step over" and "step into" commands.
• The "step over" command advances to the next program line:
• Example: If the current line is

  r = future_value(balance, p n);
  cout << setw(10) << r;
  

  "step over" advances the program to

  r = future_value(balance, p n);
  cout << setw(10) << r;
  

• The "step into" command advances into function calls.
• Example: if the current line is

  r = future_value(balance, p n);
  cout << setw(10) << r;
  

  "step into" advances the program to

  double future_value(double initial_balance,
     double p, int n)
  {
     double b = initial_balance * pow((1 + p /100), n);
     return b;
  }
