Software Bug

A software bug is an error, flaw, failure, or fault in a software program that causes it to produce incorrect or unexpected results or behave in unintended ways. Software Bugs can arise from various sources and manifest in many different forms.

Types of Software Bugs

Some types of software bugs are as follows:

• Syntax Errors: Syntax errors are mistakes in code that violate the programming language’s rules, and the compiler or interpreter detects them.
• Logical Errors: Logical Errors are errors in the program’s logic that cause it to operate incorrectly, even if it runs without crashing.
• Runtime Errors: Runtime Errors are errors that occur during the program’s execution, such as division by zero or accessing invalid memory.
• Performance Bugs: Performance issues that cause the software to perform inefficiently, such as memory leaks or slow response times.
• Security Bugs: Security Bugs are vulnerabilities that attackers can exploit to gain unauthorized access or cause harm.
