missing semi colon, missing comma, undeclared identifier,
etc

2. Semantic Errors: Logical error in the program due to
which functionality behaves differently than expected.

3. Runtime Errors: Exceptions due to insufficient memory
and Segmentation fault, stack over flow, etc.

What are the different types of errors in C and when they occur?..

Answer / vishwjeet singh

PROTOTYPE ERROR:when any header file is missing then we error hat was shown by compilling the program is prototype error.
SYNTEX ERROR: Actually these type of errors occured when
programmer misses the syntax.(Syntsx: (,),(.),(;),("") etc.)
Example:- printf("your sum is %d"c);
This may occure error "Syntax error".
Right Syntax is:printf("your sum is %d",c);

SYSTEMATIC ERROR:These type of errors occure when there is a
missmatch of functionallity.
Example: int sum is;
this may occure error because while declaring a variable c
is not allowed space( ).
Right Syntax is: int sum_is;

RUNTIME ERROR: Thes etype of errors also known as "linker
errors".These type of errors occure after compilation.This
will not give you the line where these type of errors occured.

Assume that the int variables i and j have been declared, and that n has been declared and initialized. Write code that causes a "triangle" of asterisks of size n to be output to the screen. Specifically, n lines should be printed out, the first consisting of a single asterisk, the second consisting of two asterisks, the third consistings of three, etc. The last line should consist of n asterisks. Thus, for example, if n has value 3, the output of your code should be * ** *** You should not output any space characters. Hint: Use a for loop nested inside another for loop.

Given an int variable n that has been initialized to a positive value and, in addition, int variables k and total that have already been declared, use a do...while loop to compute the sum of the cubes of the first n whole numbers, and store this value in total . Thus if n equals 4, your code should put 1*1*1 + 2*2*2 + 3*3*3 + 4*4*4 into total . Use no variables other than n , k , and total .
