Given question: Differentiate between runtime error and logical error.
Answer: Differences between runtime error and logical error:
RUNTIME ERROR-
1) In this error, there is an abnormal termination of program while it is getting executed.
2) The syntax is correct in the program.
3) It may show- ''division by zero''.
EXAMPLE-
Runtime error occurs during division operation when we take denominator as 0.

LOGICAL ERROR-
1) It is also called semantic error. It doesn't stop the execution of program.
2) It gives incorrect output.
