* Take care to not assign values or read from outside the range of a declared array.

* Debug the code by inserting [`Serial.print()`](https://www.arduino.cc/reference/en/language/functions/communication/serial/print/) calls and checking the Serial Monitor. Use this method to check what values get assigned to important variables and when the code branches, e.g. on an `if()` statement. Consider using the [ArduinoTrace](https://www.arduino.cc/reference/en/libraries/arduinotrace/) to make this process simpler.
