miscode
Write faulty instructions
To miscode is to code incorrectly—applying the wrong label, category, or programming instruction.
In research, data may be miscoded when entered: Several responses were miscoded as "no opinion" instead of "strongly agree".
In programming, miscoded instructions produce bugs or unexpected behavior.
The noun miscode refers to such an error.
