Errors in C-Language

There are three types of error in


computer languages, Following are
these errors:
• Syntax Error
• Logical Error
• Run-time Error
1) Syntax Error:-
• Set of rules to write a program in programing
language.
• If doesn’t follow then a compiler will detect an error

Examples
• Missing a delimiters somewhere in a program.
• Incorrect spelling of keyword shall generate Syntax
Error
• Missing a terminator at the end of a statement .
Program 1.1:-
#include<stdio.h>
#include<conio.h>
void main()
{ Terminator
is missing
int a;
clrscr()
a=10
printf(“Enter a value”);
scanf(“%d”,&a);
getch()
}
2) Logical Error:-
• An error that occurs due to poor logic of
programmer
• Produces unexpected result of program.
• Can’t be detected by compiler.

Examples.

• Using wrong condition like a<5 instead of a>5.


• Using wrong formula.
Program 1.2:-
#include<stdio.h>
#include<conio.h>
void main()
{ Wrong
int a; condition
clrscr()
a=3;
If(a>4)
printf(“Number is lesser.”);
else
printf(“Number is greater.”);
getch()
}

Expected Output:- Given output:


Number is lesser. Number is greater.
3) Run-time Error:-
• Occurs during execution of program.
• When statement directs computer to execute
illegal operation.
• Computer detects and displays the error.

Example.
• User ask program to open a file that does not
exist.
• User enter wrong data etc.
Program 1.3:-
#include<stdio.h>
#include<conio.h>
void main()
{
int a; illegal
statement
a=5;
a=a/0;
printf(“%d”,a);
getch()
}
