Solving your own errors is a really important part of independence, and you need to learn the strategies that can help.

Error Strategies

• ALWAYS deal with first error
• ALWAYS check the line before
• Remember, Error messages not always helpful
• Remember, Don't blindly follow the message
• Have you had this before, if so what did you do

Common Messages

• can not implicitly convert you have one data type before the = and a different one after the =
• no overload for method you have entered parameters into the ( ) which are not needed
• can not be used like a method you have added ( ) to something that is not a method, so remove them
