Category Pitfall

Put this category tag on pages describing known pitfalls and traps to avoid, especially in a programming language or library.

How is this distinguished from anti-patterns?

We also have a topic named LanguageGotchas.

And a category named CategoryDefensiveProgramming.


Where did that page go that mentioned "the last" programming bug ?

From memory, it was something like

  if( enemy_missiles_detected = true ){
      launch_missiles();
  }
