Stack Trace
In plain terms
A report of the function call sequence at an error.
Going deeper
A stack trace lists the chain of function calls leading to an error, helping pinpoint where and how it occurred. It's a breadcrumb trail to the bug.
Under the hood
Read top-down from the error point back through callers; essential for debugging.
Examples
Debugging, exception output, error logs, Sentry, crash analysis.
Think of it like...
Like a trail of breadcrumbs showing exactly the path that led to the problem.
