A software bug is a bug in computer software . A computer program with many or serious bugs may be described as buggy. The effects of a software bug range from minor (such as a misspelled word in the user interface) to severe (such as frequent crashing ). Software bugs have been linked to disasters.
Software development. In engineering, debugging is the process of finding the root cause of and workarounds and possible fixes for bugs . For software, debugging tactics can involve interactive debugging, control flow analysis, log file analysis, monitoring at the application or system level, memory dumps, and profiling.
Glitch. A glitch is a short-lived technical fault, such as a transient one that corrects itself, making it difficult to troubleshoot. The term is particularly common in the computing and electronics industries, in circuit bending, as well as among players of video games. More generally, all types of systems including human organizations and ...

In engineering, a bug is a design defect in an engineered system that causes an undesired result. Although used exclusively to describe a technical issue, bug is a non-technical term; applicable without technical understanding of the system. The term bug applies exclusively to a system that is (human) designed; not to a natural system; and that ...
In computer science, a memory leak is a type of resource leak that occurs when a computer program incorrectly manages memory allocations [ 1] in a way that memory which is no longer needed is not released. A memory leak may also happen when an object is stored in memory but cannot be accessed by the running code (i.e. unreachable memory ). [ 2]
Off-by-one errors are common in using the C library because it is not consistent with respect to whether one needs to subtract 1 byte – functions like fgets() and strncpy will never write past the length given them (fgets() subtracts 1 itself, and only retrieves (length − 1) bytes), whereas others, like strncat will write past the length given them.
The second example would theoretically print the variable Hello World instead of the words "Hello World". However, a variable in Java cannot have a space in between, so the syntactically correct line would be System.out.println(Hello_World).
