While debugging, which parameter assignment style should be avoided in your methods?

  1. Using shorthand notation for addition.

  2. Reassigning method parameters directly.

  3. Returning values in both if and else statements.

  4. Using descriptive naming for variables.

The correct answer is: Reassigning method parameters directly.

Reassigning method parameters directly within a method can lead to confusion and unintended side effects, making debugging more difficult. When parameters are passed to a method, they are typically meant to be treated as inputs that should not be altered. Modifying these parameters can create ambiguity about the original value passed in and mislead developers regarding the flow of data within the method. This practice can especially complicate matters when the method is large or when parameters are passed by reference, as it may go against the intended use of parameters as ingoing data. Thus, keeping the parameters untouched enables better readability and maintainability of code, ultimately facilitating an easier debugging process.
