Debugging Assistance

ChatGPT can help developers debug their code by identifying the potential errors in the code and suggesting possible solutions.

Developer: Hi ChatGPT, can you help me debug this code snippet for finding the largest number in an array?

ChatGPT: Sure, can you share your code snippet with me?

Developer: Here it is:

int[] numbers = {5, 10, 2, 7};

int max = numbers[0];

for (int i = 1; i <= numbers.length; i++) {

if (numbers[i] > max) {

max = numbers[i];

}

}

ChatGPT: I see the issue. In your for loop condition, you have written i <= numbers.length instead of i < numbers.length. This is causing an ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException. Try changing the condition to i < numbers.length and your code should work fine.
