What are different errors encountered while compiling?

Answer»

Compile errors are those errors that occur at the time of compilation of the program. C compile errors may be further classified as:

Syntax Errors

When the rules of the c programming language are not FOLLOWED, the compiler will SHOW syntax errors.

For example, consider the statement,

1int a,b:

The above statement will PRODUCE syntax ERROR as the statement is terminated with : rather than ;

Semantic Errors

Semantic errors are reported by the compiler when the statements written in the c program are not meaningful to the compiler.

For example, consider the statement,

1

b+c=a;

In the above statement we are trying to assign VALUE of a in the value obtained by summation of b and c which has no meaning in c. The correct statement will be

1

a=b+c;
