The document details the process of manually working through code without execution known as a dry run. It provides examples of dry running code that swaps two integers using a temporary variable and using addition and subtraction. The dry run traces the values of variables step-by-step to identify logic errors.

Dry run

Process of manually working through code to trace value of variables


There is no software involved in this process
Characteristics of a dry run
carried out during design, implementation, testing or maintenance
used to identify logic errors
not find compile time (syntax, semantics) errors and runtime (execution) errors
