My first real project broke because I didn't check my variable names

Spent 4 hours debugging a simple Python script only to find I had a typo in a variable name I used 15 times. Has anyone else wasted a whole evening on something this dumb?

Whoa wait, Taylor - you rewrote half your script before figuring that out? That's brutal. I would have been so mad at myself.

Once had a variable named "temp" that I kept accidentally reusing, ended up rewriting half the script before I realized Python was just overwriting my data every loop. Felt like a GENIUS after that one.
