Name three categories of errors that may be found in a computer program. Which category is detected by the compiler?
// This program determines the percentage grade on
// an exam, given the number of questions missed,
// how many points each question was worth,
// and the total points possible.
#include
using namespace std;
int main()
{
int pointsPerQuestion;
int numberMissed;
double percentageGrade;
double pointsPossible;
cout << "Enter the total points possible on the exam => ";
cin >> pointsPossible;
cout << endl;
cout << "Enter the number of points per question => ";
cin >> pointsPerQuestion;
cout << endl
cout <<"Enter the number of questions missed => ";
cin >> numberMissed;
percentageGrade = pointsPossible - numberMissed * pointsPerQuestion / pointsPossible * 100;
cout << endl << "The percentage grade is ";
cout << percentageGrade << "%";
return 0;
}
Three kinds of errors: syntax, run-time, logic. The compiler detects syntax errors.
