EVERYTHING IS BREAKING! There are ERRORS EVERYWHERE! Whatever this function is supposed to do, it is not doing it correctly. Literally you go from one seemingly small error to about fifty or a hundred. YOU DON’T KNOW! You’re just scrolling through the debug logger and panicking. Like a lot! What do you do?

  1. Revert back and start over HOLY MOTHER OF GOD!
  2. Revert commit but investigate ReIterateThroughDataBaseGreaterThanZero(X,YIn,Params)
  3. Try and fix all of the errors
  4. Try and run the code again, maybe it’s a fluke
