      Buffer overflow :)
    • vaidhy 5y ago
      This used to happen in C for me. Basically, you are trying to print a string which has overflowed the allocated length and you get junk printed on the string. C-Strings are null terminated and the system will keep printing till it encounters a null. So, bounds checking and buffer overflows are also hard problems.

      Memory corruption due to off-by-one errors.

  Gotta watch out for those nulls :)

    Nulls are easy compared to invalid non-null pointers.

      People say null in Java was a mistake, but I've never had any issues in my null-only dialect of Java /s

  Now, just toss in a byte order mark, and I think we've a winner!
