    Program Errors: Types and Definition

    Uploaded by

    KOMERTDFDF
    Types of program errors include syntax errors from incorrect grammar, logical errors when a program's design does not achieve its intended function, and runtime errors detected during execution like division by zero. Debugging locates and fixes bugs through testing with sample data to check for syntax and logical errors, using techniques like trace tables that track variable and output changes during program execution.

    PROGRAM ERRORS

    Types and definition

    Syntax error
    An incorrect use of the rules that construct legal program statements. A grammatical mistake. wrie(This is an example of syntax error);

    Logical error
    An error in the design of the program. The program may be grammatically correct, but it is not doing what you intended it to do.

    Runtime error
    Error that is first detected when the program is run.

    Examples: attempt to divide by zero, overflow.

    Debugging
    The detection, location and correction of bugs (program errors).

    Testing
    Efforts made to examine if a program is grammatically correct (no syntax errors), and does what was intended (no logical errors).

    Test data
    Data used to test a program. As well as the data, the expected results are specified. Normal data, extreme data, illegal data are tested.

    Trace table
    A table with a column for each variable used and one for the output. Each row shows a change in a variable or output as the program is executed.
