Treehouse Guest TeacherYou probably have a runtime exception which means there's a bug in your app causing it to halt the execution of your app. Usually it halts execution in the main because it is the starting point for your app. You can set an exception breakpoint for it halt execution where the problem is actually occurring in your code. To learn about debugging check out the Debugging Basics video.
