Question

which of the following is an example of a runtime error?
i. karel crashing into a wall
ii. leaving a colon off the end of a function definition
iii. using the wrong syntax in an if/else statement
iv. not closing all open parenthesis

i
i and iii
ii and iv
i - iv, all

Explanation:

Runtime errors occur while a program is executing, not during compilation/parsing.

• I: Karel crashing into a wall happens when the program runs, so it is a runtime error.
• II, III, IV: Missing colons, wrong syntax, unclosed parentheses are syntax errors caught before the program runs, not runtime errors.

Answer:

I
