Errors in programming

Errors are problems or faults that occur in the program and cause unexpected behavior. Some errors don’t allow the program to begin execution, some can interrupt the execution, and others can be detected only after analyzing the program’s output. Errors are a way through which our machines tell us that they do not understand what we want them to do. For example, if people do not follow the rules and words of our language, we may not understand what they want to say or want us to do. Let’s explore the various types of programming errors and how they occur.
