    Wouldn’t most development programs tell them the syntax error on the line and column where you replaced the semicolon

    This wouldn’t work

      VSCode will add a yellow box around the character and tell you it’s an uncommon glyph.

      To note, this came about because it could be valid code and it’s a security risk from copy/pasting malicious code. See:

      It would work for someone just starting and not knowing good tooling yet. However, the compiler should also tell you where to look and give you the area to look at as well. It’ll be less clear than an IDE, though.

      Yup. It’s as if we’re assuming this friend is coding inside Notepad.
