What to notice while you play.

Objective

Build a readback habit after each file change.

Hint

Save a few short lines so wc has something to count.

Why it matters

Verification catches wrong paths, failed saves, and stale assumptions.

Common mistakes
  • Trusting an edit without reading it back.
  • Checking the wrong filename.
