Something we (myself and my fellow computer engineering students) like
to say when we're in circuits or programming labs is "All programming
mistakes are stupid. All wiring mistakes are stupid."
I would say it holds true at least 80% of the time. /Why/ isn't the
circuit working? It's because you plugged that wire into the wrong
breadboard row. /Why/ is your code segfaulting? It's because you left
out a comma or a quote somewhere.
