# Errors and Diagnostics
|
|
|
|
This guide helps you understand common error messages and how to collect useful diagnostics.
|
|
|
|
## Common error classes
|
|
- Parse errors: syntax/indentation problems detected before execution.
|
|
- Name/lookup errors: missing variables, functions, or modules.
|
|
- Runtime errors: type mismatches, out-of-range access, invalid operations.
|
|
|
|
## Enabling diagnostics
|
|
- Build with `-DFUN_DEBUG=ON` to enable additional assertions and debug messages (see `docs/build.md`).
|
|
- Run with smaller, focused scripts to isolate issues.
|
|
|
|
## Getting useful reports
|
|
- Capture the minimal script that reproduces the issue.
|
|
- Note your build options and platform.
|
|
- Record the full error output from the CLI (`fun`), including line/column if present.
|
|
|
|
## Tips
|
|
- Use prints or logging sparingly to narrow down failing code.
|
|
- Start from a passing simple case and add complexity until it breaks.
