Computer languages tend to have a primary bug. In Java most problems manifest as a NullPointerException or a NoClassDefFoundError. In Forth, they show up as stray items left on the stack. In Assembler they show up as attempts to read outside the program address space. In FØRTRAN, it will show up as an index out of bounds. In C they show up at attempt to access low numbered locations.
