Why are we doing this?

A big part of any development role is identifying and fixing bugs in code. Sometimes you will find these bugs yourself, other times users or colleagues will report them to you.

In this exercise we have provided some code which doesn't work properly. Start by running the code, then work through the list of bugs and attempt to fix them.
