Warning: spent 9 hours debugging a missing semicolon in JavaScript

I was following a tutorial on freeCodeCamp for building a simple calculator and it just kept throwing errors. Turns out I forgot one semicolon inside a for loop that I skimmed right over like 15 times. Has anyone else had a tiny typo eat up their whole weekend like this?
