Compilers' ability to report errors mostly depend on the presence of redundancy in the source code. That redundancy depends can be influenced by the design of the language. So, in theory, a compiler can very much flag most logic errors in a program, simply by requiring all source code to come in two different forms (e.g. a "spec" and an "implementation") and to automatically verify that the two match. > A Turing-complete language can calculate anything, so how can it tell > you that you were calculating this when you wanted to calculate that? And the same still holds for non-Turing-complete languages, admittedly. === Stefan
