+Building & Running the app were done as per the instructions. I used Visual Studio 2015 to run build and ran both the Release and Debug versions. The output was the same in both cases as highlighted below.

+## CUDA Debugging
+
+I initially ran into a "grid launch failure" error when I tried to run the CUDA debugger. It turns out that my NSight version was too low. Updating it to 5.6 fixed the issue. I was able to place breakpoints, edit their hit conditions, and examine autos. I was also able to examine information about kernels, blocks, and warps through the CUDA Info NSight menu.
