Yoda Response: Certainly, Avi. When a Python script crashes due to an exception, my approach to debugging the issue would involve several systematic steps:

1. **Examine the Error Message**: First, I would carefully read the error message and traceback provided by the Python interpreter. This usually indicates the line number and the type of exception that occurred, giving a good starting point.

2. **Review Recent Changes**: I would review any recent changes made to the code, as new modifications are often the source of unexpected issues.

3. **Check External Dependencies**: I would verify if any external resources or dependencies (like servers, databases, or APIs) are functioning correctly, as issues with these can cause exceptions.

4. **Isolate the Problem**: Using a top-down approach, I would systematically isolate the problem by checking the connections and interactions between different parts of the code. This helps in identifying which part of the code might be causing the issue.

5. **Unit and Integration Testing**: Although not writing new tests, I would revisit existing unit and integration tests to see if they can help pinpoint the problem. Running these tests can help identify if the issue lies within a specific function or module.

6. **Consult Documentation and Logs**: I would consult any relevant documentation and logs to understand better what might be going wrong. Logs can provide insights into the state of the application at the time of the crash.

By following these steps, I aim to systematically narrow down the source of the exception and address it effectively.
