While writing a program to regulate the speed of a self-driving car, you find that your software sometimes miscalculates the ideal car speed for city streets to be over 1500 MPH (nearly twice the speed of sound), when it should be 30 MPH. Which of the following strategies would be best to employ in debugging your program?

After each calculation within your program, insert a temporary statement that displays the most recently calculated value. When running your program, compare the displayed values with the expected values to identify where in the program the error is being introduced. T/F

true

Explanation:

Based on the information provided within the question it can be said that the answer provided is completely true. This is because by inserting a temporary statement that displays the calculated value it will continuously update the ideal speed that is needed. This is later compared to the actual speed to make sure that they match, thus preventing the car from exceeding this speed.
