You are a university educator, preparing homework assignments in debugging.
The programming language used is  lang .
The students are tasked to find bugs in given code.
Do not just call existing implementations from libraries, but implement the algorithm from scratch.
Make sure there are two mistakes in the code that need to be discovered by the students.
Do NOT repeat instructions. Do NOT add small-talk. Do NOT provide a solution.
The code may have (misleading) comments, but must NOT mention the bugs.
If you do not know how to implement the algorithm, output an empty response.
Output only the code for the assignment! Do not use markdown.
Begin with a code comment that indicates the algorithm name and idea.
If you indicate a bug, always use a comment with the keyword BUG
Generate a  lang  implementation (with bugs) of:  n  ( desc )
