-What are some examples of common JavaScript errors?
-
 As you've been programming in JavaScript, you've inevitably run into error messages. Understanding common error messages will help you debug more effectively and develop into a stronger programmer. The four common types of error messages are `SyntaxError`, `ReferenceError`, `TypeError`, and `RangeError`.

 A `SyntaxError` happens when you write something incorrectly in your code, like missing a parenthesis, or a bracket. Think of it like a grammar mistake in a sentence. Here is a common mistake developers make when creating arrays:

-How does the `throw` statement work?
-
 The `throw` statement in JavaScript is used to throw a user defined exception. An exception in programming, is when an unexpected event happens and disrupts the normal flow of the program.

 As programmers it is important to handle these exceptions, so your programs don’t crash unexpectedly when errors occur. Here is the basic syntax for the `throw` statement:

 Here is an example of a function that will check if the denominator is `0`. If that is the case, then it will throw a custom error message saying `Cannot divide by zero`.

-How does the `debugger` statement work?
-
 The `debugger` statement is a powerful JavaScript tool that lets you pause your code at a specific line to investigate what's going on in the program. When used correctly, the `debugger` statement can save you a lot of time trying to figure out why something is not working as it should.

 JavaScript executes your code from top to bottom. While JavaScript executes your code and hits a `debugger` statement, it immediately pauses execution at that line. This gives you the chance to inspect variables, check functions, and the flow of of the code in general.

 The `try` block is used to wrap code that might throw an error. It acts as a safe space to try something that could fail.

-What are some examples of using advanced JavaScript debugging techniques?
-
 Debugging your JavaScript programs goes beyond using `console.log()` statements in your code. There are more advanced techniques that make debugging a breeze once you get used to them. Let's go through those more advanced techniques so you'll be happy to debug your JavaScript program once you run into errors.

 The first concept we will take a look at is working with breakpoints. Breakpoints let you pause the execution of your code at a specific line of your choice. After the pause, you can inspect variables, evaluate expressions, and examine the call stack.

+For the last portion of this lecture, we will focus on `console.table` and `console.dir`.

 `console.table()` displays tabular data as a table in the console. It takes one mandatory argument, which must be an array or an object, and one optional argument to specify which properties or columns to display.
