I make an effort to use a debugger first.

Right now I'm writing some stuff which takes over the terminal and works in recursive loops (ncurses roguelike map generator) so print debugging is a hassle. It's actually quicker to use a debugger.

I find that attaching gdb and running "bt" and "info locals" or inspecting variables with "p" is much cleaner than printing, and helps me visualise what the code is doing much better.

This use of a debugger for "little things" is immensely helpful for when I need to use a debugger at work to solve "big things", which are usually remotely and after-the-fact with a core file, so printing isn't even an option there.
