[[fr:bogue]]
A '''computer bug''' is a fault in a [[computer program]] which prevents it from working correctly. Bugs arise either from mistakes in the [[source code]] of a computer program, or from faulty software design. The term derives from hardware engineering jargon, in which hardware errors are referred to as "bugs". The term is often (but erroneously) credited to [[Grace Hopper]], through an anecdote where she determined the reason for a malfunction on an early electromechanical computer was an [[bug|actual insect]] stuck between the contacts of the [[relay]]s that drove the device.
