Otkud ime Bug

Kad je usao neki kukakc elektronske cijevi i dosao je neki eror i po tome je dosao BUG.

Na racunalu Mark II (velicine sobe) zbog topline kukac je usao u cijev i uzrokovao gresku u prenosenju podataka. Tako je nastao naziv bug.

EDIT: Da imas pravo bilo je na Marku II, a ne ENIAC :)

A za casopis BUG je objasnio Dado_ZG78.

Citat s Wikipedie:

The concept that software might contain errors dates back to 1842 in Ada Byron's notes on the analytical engine in which she speaks of the difficulty of preparing program 'cards' for Charles Babbage's Analytical engine:

“ ...an analyzing process must equally have been performed in order to furnish the Analytical Engine with the necessary operative data; and that herein may also lie a possible source of error. Granted that the actual mechanism is unerring in its processes, the cards may give it wrong orders. ”

Usage of the term "bug" to describe inexplicable defects has been a part of engineering jargon for many decades and predates computers and computer software; it may have originally been used in hardware engineering to describe mechanical malfunctions. For instance, Thomas Edison wrote the following words in a letter to an associate in 1878:

“ It has been just so in all of my inventions. The first step is an intuition, and comes with a burst, then difficulties arise — this thing gives out and [it is] then that 'Bugs' — as such little faults and difficulties are called — show themselves and months of intense watching, study and labor are requisite before commercial success or failure is certainly reached."

Problems with radar electronics during World War II were referred to as bugs (or glitches), and there is additional evidence that the usage dates back much earlier.

The invention of the term is often erroneously attributed to Grace Hopper, who publicized the cause of a malfunction in an early electromechanical computer. A typical version of the story is given by this quote:

“ In 1946, when Hopper was released from active duty, she joined the Harvard Faculty at the Computation Laboratory where she continued her work on the Mark II and Mark III. Operators traced an error in the Mark II to a moth trapped in a relay, coining the term bug. This bug was carefully removed and taped to the log book September 9th 1945 [sic]. Stemming from the first bug, today we call errors or glitch's [sic] in a program a bug. ”

Hopper was not actually the one who found the insect, as she readily acknowledged. And the date was September 9, but in 1947, not 1945. The operators who did find it (including William "Bill" Burke, later of the Naval Weapons Laboratory, Dahlgren Va.), were familiar with the engineering term and, amused, kept the insect with the notation "First actual case of bug being found." Hopper loved to recount the story.

While it is certain that the Mark II operators did not coin the term "bug", it has been suggested that they did coin the related term, "debug". Even this is unlikely, since the Oxford English Dictionary entry for "debug" contains a use of "debugging" in the context of airplane engines in 1945 (see the debugging article for more).

Za ime novog informatičkog časopisa početkom 90-tih uz sve tadašnje nazive mislim da je 'BUG' ime bilo vrlo originalno i pun pogodak

Vjerovatno netko ima fetis na kukce.

_{lol lol lol!}
