that the question was ambiguous by the use of occur. That according to my thesaurus
has two meanings (1) happen [take place, crop up, come about, arise] and (2)
come to mind [strike, appear]. Could using “detected” as in Program syntax
errors are detected been less ambiguous? It still has both B and D as possible
answers. A is ruled out by compilation, and C is related to functionality of a compiled
program. Perhaps one too many options for an unambiguous question unless of
course more than one answer is acceptable<o:p></o:p></span></font></span></p>
