Software logic flaw
A programming error is a mistake in software code that causes unintended behavior.
Errors range from syntax problems that prevent code from running to logical flaws that produce wrong results.
Also called a bug: We found a programming error that was corrupting user data.
Debugging is the process of finding and fixing such errors.
