An error in coding identified through sample executions 
(otherwise at the testing phase) is called a defect.

This identified defect which does not throw out the ER=AR
is a bug present in the software.

However its easy for one to consider bug and defect to mean 
one and the same thing as there is a very fine line between 
the two.

HumanBeing is made for Mistake.

When a developer makes a mistake (Syntactic or Semantic) in 
an application that is called Error in coding.

When a tester while testing finds that error hile 
execution,it is called Defect (or Bug).

At the system level testing of the whole application if u 
find a defect in the software,it is called Fault.

If End user finds that the software is not as per the 
requirement,it is called Failure)

Bug and Defect both are same.

Tester uses the term Defect when talking about 
functionality, where as developer uses the term bug talking 
about the Code.

Answer
# 14
Defect is non conformance to the requirements and the test case.
Bug is a undesired functionality crept in. This could be
because of a scenario not thought of during requirements
gathering.
The best example of a bug is the Y2K. most of the systems
worked up to 1999 and couldn't round of to year 2000.
The floor and ceil is another example - 14.3 when rounded
off should round off to 14 and not 15 as per majority of the
requirement.
