Syntax Error | Logical Error |
---|---|
Syntax Errors occur when we violate the rules of writing the statements of the programming language. | Logical Errors occur due to our mistakes in programming logic. |
Program fails to compile and execute. | Program compiles and executes but doesn't give the desired output. |
Syntax Errors are caught by the compiler. | Logical errors need to be found and corrected by people working on the program. |
Syntax errors are found at compile type whereas Logical errors are found when the program starts executing.
