Hmmm, I guess then it's time for me to ask this question: Is how I do this
the way you do it?

I have been inserting lines like this:   print("The program got here!")
all over my python code whenever I want to know where the program went.

If you want to know where your program went when something went wrong or
when it triggers a if condition, how do you do it?

Thanks!
