the best part like that it was easily guiding me to remove the scope of variable. good examples to solve the errors. Fast and efficient.

There are stilll few cases of array out of bounds which are obvious but not captured. Can be improved still.

Recognizing code coverage. Speed. Recognizing accurate code issues sometimes poor.
