I was using some software on my iPhone today, when this alert appeared :<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

\"To<\/a>
To Err Or Not To Err<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

The software is by Apple, it helps me manage the various iPhone games that I’ve made (search the App Store for “Polytope Media”).<\/p>\n

I suppose I did something (I’m not sure what) that’s meant to produce an error.<\/p>\n

That must be it. There was supposed to be an error, but for some reason, the desired error failed to occur. That’s clearly wrong, hence the alert.<\/p>\n

On the other hand, doesn’t that mean there was<\/em> an error? If there’s supposed to be an error, and there is one, doesn’t that mean everything’s working fine, and the alert pointing out no error occurred should not have been shown?<\/p>\n

I thought computers were meant to be logical. Sigh!<\/em><\/p>\n
