'most errors supposedly made by computers are really human errors'. Give your opinion.?
Answers:
Computers only do what humans ask them to do..or program them to do.any errors are glitches not seen at the time of programming..so yes they are human errors.
.or is it computer manufacturers spreading an evil rumour?
A computer is just a tool; a very accurate tool. It does not make errors.
What people generally refer to as computer error, refers to the operator, not the machine.
OF COURSE THEY ARE
We built them, we operate them.Absolutely.
Computers are made and programmed by people, perhaps not indirectly so you could say the human errors trickle through. Then again, no complex system is 100% reliable, so even if there was no human error, something might overheat and fuse!
Humans are either passively or actively at fault for any computer error. Computers are built by humans, and their environments can be controlled by humans. If something happens to a computer, even an external force (bug, lightning, etc) gets into the system, one could argue that this is due to human error of not keeping bugs/lightning/etc away. (lightning can be avoided through complex electrical separation devices used for instance, in a EMP-proof bomb shelter). The internals (both hardware and software) of the system are equally dependent on humans.
In my experience, the vast majority of computer "errors" weren't actively caused by humans, but were passively introduced through our inability to compose part of a complex system while having our minds on every possible effect that part could have.
Of course, the errors that really were caused by people can be quite entertaining.
Yes most of the time it is human error.
Computers are just machine and have to be given instructions to make them work.
If they get the wrong instructions then they give out the wrong answers.
Otherwise they can break down mechanically which is the only other way they can fail
rubbish in rubbish out
TELL THAT TO "YAHOO" WHEN YOU TYPE IN AN ANSWER AND ONLY GET PART / OR / NONE OF YOUR WORDS / OR / PHRASES / OR / SENTENCES PRINTED
OUT WHEN YOU "SUBMIT".[EVEN WHEN YOU "PREVIEW"]
[ON SCREEN]
AND THEN YOU HAVE TOO GO INTO THE "SOURCE-LIST" IN ORDER TO EXPLAIN YOURSELF.BECAUSE "THE YAHOO "COMPUTER" PROGRAM WONT LET YOU "CORRECT".. "THEIR".. MISTAKES..
GGGGRRRRRRRRRRRRR !!!!
