Logical errors that we make while writing a program are not indicated by the interpreter. Why?
- The interpreter does not indicate errors while the program is running, because it detects them before the program runs (it does not allow the program to run).
- The interpreter ignores logical errors, because they do not affect the result of the program in any way.
- It results from the default settings of the interpreter, although we can modify these settings so that logical errors are also pointed out.
- The interpreter is unable to identify logical errors because they are not related to either the syntax or the semantics of the JavaScript language.
Explanation & Hint:
Logical errors are not indicated by the interpreter because they do not violate the syntax or grammar rules of the programming language. Instead, logical errors occur when the program does not produce the desired or expected output due to incorrect or flawed logic in the code. The role of the interpreter or compiler is to execute the code according to the syntax and rules of the language. It checks for syntax errors and ensures that the code follows the language’s grammar. |
