    Look carefully at the type of length in my example.

If they do, I ask them to find the smallest example that exhibits the problem and send me that. Mostly, they then find the error themselves. "Finding the smallest program that demonstrates the error" is a powerful debugging tool.

    Actually I think whiteflags missed that Laser changed the input type in the example to an int. In which case there isn't a bounds problem.
