Code Debugger — illustrative example INPUT Python reproduction: items = ["A", "B"] seen = [] for i in range(len(items) - 1): seen.append(items[i]) Expected ["A", "B"]; actual ["A"]. RESULT Corrected loop: seen = [] for item in items: seen.append(item) For ["A", "B"], seen becomes ["A", "B"]. Empty input produces []. Iterating over items directly removes the incorrect index boundary. REVIEW Debugging starts with expected behavior, actual behavior and a reproducible case. A likely cause should be tested rather than immediately declared the root cause. This is a teaching example, not a live execution record.
