A breakpoint allows you to stop execution of your code inside a debugger, and 
thus you can inspect variables, the call stack and execution flow to determine 
where the code is not executing as you might expect it to.

You can also step through the execution of your code one line at a time after 
the breakpoint, step into and over function call, inspect return values, and a 
lot more.

debugging is (usually) used to analyze code to fix bugs, but you can also use a 
debugger to gain deeper knowledge of code someone else wrote.
