I can't tell you the number of time I restart my computer and my code starts working.

I spent 5 days last week doing a lab assignment on linked lists, spent 3 days trying to debug my code, turned off and on my computer and it worked. I suspect it's a cache issue where there is some corrupted cache that isn't being updated and that can only reset through a full restart.
