I have used a debugger, most recently on a VB.NET web application that someone else wrote and that I had to maintain. I could not have done without the debugger there. But I haven't touched the application in several years now. Before that--almost twenty-five years ago--I figured out how to use the COBOL "animator" to find out why Peoplesoft payroll processing was crashing on us. There was no way in the world to have figured that out without the animator. These days, though, I mostly use print or logging.debug
