What error is caught when a program executes?

compile error


Can you compile program without header file?

Yes,we can compile our program without header file without any error,but we can not use any predefine functions like printf,scanf.


Difference between semantic error and logical errors?

Syntax Error: error due to missing colon, semicolon, parenthesis, etc. Syntax is the way in which we construct sentences by following principles and rules. Example: In C++, it would be a syntax error to say int x = "five"; This will not compile because it does not follow the syntax of the language and does not make any sense to the compiler. Semantic Error: it is a logical error. it is due to wrong logical statements. Semantics is the interpretations of and meanings derived from the sentence transmission and understanding of the message. Semantics errors are Logical, while Syntax errors are code errors. Example: A semantic error would compile, but be incorrect logically: const int pi = 12345; Your program will likely compile and run without error but your results will be incorrect. (Note that these types of errors are usually much harder to debug)


Is error and exception same?

Error: Any departure from the expected behavior of the system or program, which stops the working of the system is an error. Exception:Any error or problem which one can handle and continue to work normally. Note that in Java a compile time error is normally called an "error," while a runtime error is called an "exception." Errors don't have subclasses while exception has two subclasses, they are compile time exception or checked exception (ClassNotFound Exception, IOException, SQLException etc.) and runtime or unchecked exception(ArrayIndexOutOfBounds Exception, NumberFormat Exception).


Difference between syntax error and runtime error?

Syntax error can be found during compilation. Runtime error can be found only when you are trying to execute your program. Syntax errors are those which are caused by incorrect usage of the programming language. All programming language compilers are designed to detect and report such errors done by the programmer Runtime errors are those which are caused by incorrect usage of programming logic. for example a runtime divide method will throw a run time error if the divisor is '0' because numerically you cannot divide a number by 0

What is the difference between runtime errors and compile time error?

Compile time errors occur do to syntax errors (such as forgetting a semi-colon at the end of a line) and they prevent your program from even compiling. A runtime error is an error in logic in your program. Your program will compile, however while running the program it will throw an error because it tries to do something illegal (such as dividing by 0).


When does a program show a compiling error?

When a program contains a compiler error, the compiler will detect it, preventing the program from compiling. Compiler errors must be fixed before a program will compile successfully.


What is the difference between a semantic error and logic error?

An error in the logic of a program means that the output of the program is faulty (eg the program tell you 2+2=5). An error in semantics in a program means that the program statements are not constructed properly and the usual result of this is that the program will not compile.

Can you give a sentence with the word compile?

I had to compile a list of all the people who had seen the accident. Take these reports and compile a history starting with the oldest dates first. The doctor asked me to compile my medical history.


What is the difference between run-time error and compile error?

A run-time is an error that occurs when the program is executing (running). This is where segfaults and other horrible things happen. A compile-time error is an error that occurs when you are compiling the code. This is where code syntax and semantics are checked. You want errors to only occur here.


Difine run time error?

run-time error definition. An error in the execution of a program which occurs at run time, as opposed to a compile-time error. A good programming language should, among other things, aim to replace run-time errors by compile-time errors.

If you put a try block without catch block then wt the error type is it compile time or runtime error?

This is a syntax error, which will be a compile time error.


What is the main problem if a program is not executing properly?

There are three main types of error. Compile Error: A syntax error is the most common error of all. If the program was written without constructing the commands in a way the computer can interpret, then this is recognized before the program ever runs and is usually a compile time error. (Java is really strict about program structure.) Linking and Library Errors: Often one program uses something from another. If a program is correctly constructed but when one attempts to use it the connection to the other program is incorrect, or out of date or some other incompatibility, an error is generated. Run time Error: This happens if you try to perform an illegal operation. An illegal mathematical operation would be something like the square root of a negative number or division by zero. See related links for a more explanation.


You couldn't compile the java program using packages whenever you used to compile that program it shows some error message like javac not recognised as an external comamnd eventhough you set the class?

"javac not recognised as an external command"Have you ever heard of PATH? If not, ask for a programmer's help.
