Nancy and the Mysterious Case of the Undefined Object


A few months back, I switched my mobile app development from the IOS environment (apple) to non-native JavaScript. I'm enjoying coding a great deal more than I was with IOS, but still.... debugging is hard.  

Oddly enough debugging is what I missed most when I was off pursuing teaching as my interim career. Missing the looking-for-clues part of programming is what I missed most about not coding.

So when my husband replied with his usual 'Oh, I'm sorry.' response to my description of my morning's work I explained to him. You never expect the detective to get it figure out on her first shot. If she did the book just couldn't go on for 250 pages!
