A concrete starting point
Find the zero-based Josephus survivor for one through 10000 participants and a counting step from one through 1000000. Check a single participant and step one, rejecting zero, fractional or Boolean arguments.
Define the change
Describe the input, expected output and boundaries that must stay intact.
Inspect the work
Review the proposed edits and any commands before relying on their result.
Check the outcome
Compare actual behavior with the expected result. If a check fails, investigate it before applying more changes.
