Clarity edit
Example needs better explanation. I had to read it 3 or 4 times to understand what it was intended to do. (And I have 25 years programming experience! :-) --Uncle Ed 17:38, 16 November 2006 (UTC)

- I would abstract out the essential part of the logic error, perhaps in a method rather than an entire program. --Uncle Ed 15:02, 17 November 2006 (UTC)
Logic vs. semantic error edit
Should it be mentioned that in some cases term "semantic error" means something very different than logic error? One phase in compilation is called "semantic analysis" (see [1]) and errors which occur in this phase are also called "semantic errors". —Preceding unsigned comment added by 81.175.179.250 (talk) 05:50, 12 May 2010 (UTC)
