IDE: Error diagnostics refers to the tools and features in an Integrated Development Environment (IDE) that help programmers find and fix mistakes or "bugs" in their code. When students are writing computer programs, they might make errors like typing something incorrectly or using the wrong command. The IDE's error diagnostics highlight these mistakes, often giving clues or messages to explain what's wrong. This makes it easier for students to understand and correct their errors, helping their programs to run correctly without crashing or doing unexpected things. Error diagnostics are like having a helpful assistant that checks your work and guides you on how to improve it.
