Hello,

Errors in programming can be classified into syntax, logic, runtime, and semantic errors.


Syntax Errors:


Violate the rules of the programming language's syntax.

To minimize: Write clean code, use syntax-highlighting editors, and test thoroughly.

Logic Errors:


Result in unexpected or incorrect output due to flawed logic.

To minimize: Plan algorithms carefully, break down complex problems, and test systematically.

Runtime Errors:


Occur during program execution and can terminate the program.

To minimize: Test edge cases, validate inputs, and handle errors gracefully.

Semantic errors:

Code behaves differently from the intended behavior.

To minimize: Communicate clearly, document requirements, and conduct peer reviews.

To minimize errors overall, employ best practices, test rigorously, and collaborate effectively.

Hope this helps you,

Thank you
