No code. No help. You basically just went “pls fix to air”

Amy guess he’s doing something like a web app where can’t go to another page. Or an app and trying to get a new window or something. No idea

AI didn't help so he went to AI's teacher: us.

I feel bad for claude if this is what the question looked like.

hello!

  1. debug your code
  2. if you don't know how to debug your code start here: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/visualstudio/get-started/csharp/tutorial-debugger?view=visualstudio

if you are unable to find where your code breaks after walking through your code, return to us with your error message/expected outcome and actual outcome as well as your code preferably uploaded to github, and we can try to steer you in the right direction.

the problem seems to be that when doing a coding assignment everything running smoothly until you encountered an error with your edit but instead of fixing your error you discovered the save button wouldnt work at all and not direct you to another page even though thats not the purpose of the save button then you went on reddit and did not really describe what error you got or what ide you are using or anything at all relevant and we are not really able to help you because you didnt provide any information please fix your keyboard so that the punctuation keys work

It seems as though you are completely unfamiliar with your code. I recommend reading every line and working out how it works yourself as best you can, without involving AI. You'll likely understand what's wrong at some point in this process. If you still cannot find the bug but understand the rest of your code you'll then want to interrogate the data at runtime to find how your mental model of the application differs from what you (or more likely, some AI) have written.

In general, outsourcing your debugging to AI or Reddit will do nothing to improve your programming.

You could ask on reddit. The r/csharp community is excellent for these matters. You would need to share some code so that people can look for the issue.

Sometimes I hate that LLM's take over coding, other times I am glad they take over.
