Use AI to Find Errors

Last updated 18/07/2023

Five's inbuilt AI allows you to check for errors in your code while in the Code Editor. You can either highlight a selection of code or run the check on the entire code block. By default, if no code is highlighted, the entire function will be checked for errors.

caution
The length of your code block getting checked will determine how quickly the result is returned.
