1. Syntax Errors: Error found during compilation e.g.
missing semi colon, missing comma, undeclared identifier,
etc
2. Semantic Errors: Logical error in the program due to
which functionality behaves differently than expected.
3. Runtime Errors: Exceptions due to insufficient memory
and Segmentation fault, stack over flow, etc.

PROTOTYPE ERROR:when any header file is missing then we error hat was shown by compilling the program is prototype error.
SYNTEX ERROR: Actually these type of errors occured when
programmer misses the syntax.(Syntsx: (,),(.),(;),("") etc.)
Example:- printf("your sum is %d"c);
This may occure error "Syntax error".
Right Syntax is:printf("your sum is %d",c);
SYSTEMATIC ERROR:These type of errors occure when there is a
missmatch of functionallity.
Example: int sum is;
this may occure error because while declaring a variable c
is not allowed space( ).
Right Syntax is: int sum_is;
RUNTIME ERROR: Thes etype of errors also known as "linker
errors".These type of errors occure after compilation.This
will not give you the line where these type of errors occured.

2. A student studying Information Technology at Polytechnic of Namibia is examined by coursework and written examination. Both components of assessment carry a maximum of 50 marks. The following rules are used by examiners in order to pass or fail students. a. A student must score a total of 40% or more in order to pass (total = coursework marks + examination marks) b. A total mark of 39% is moderated to 40% c. Each component must be passed with a minimum mark of 20/50. If a student scores a total of 40% or more but does not achieve the minimum mark in either component he/she is given a technical fail of 39% (this mark is not moderated to 40%) d. Grades are awarded on marks that fall into the following categories. Mark 100-70 69-60 59-50 49-40 39-0 Grade A B C D E Write a program to input the marks for both components (coursework marks out of 50 and examination marks out of 50), out put the final mark and grade after any moderation.

Given that two int variables, total and amount , have been declared, write a sequence of statements that: initializes total to 0 reads three values into amount , one at a time. After each value is read in to amount , it is added to the value in total (that is, total is incremented by the value in amount ). Instructor's notes: If you use a loop, it must be a for loop. And if you use a loop control variable for counting, you must declare it.
