TypeError: Descriptors cannot not be created directly.The chance that one won't not misunderstand that error is not very low.cheers Chris Maunder

Back in the day, our Data General Fortran 77 compiler would issue this error at random times. "Unknown error code 43". If it is unknown how did it get a number, was the mystery. It happened sometimes at compile time and sometimes during program execution. We worked in the University computer lab and so made this message a sign we posted in the lab. Created all sorts of confusion and interest. We never solved it. Even Data General had no answer.

"Error 0: The operation completed successfully" Err, what?

in the good old days the C64 BASIC might greet you with a: ?FORMULA TOO COMPLEX ERROR READY.

I smell auto-correct.

Delphi 7 debugger can tell us how much is x, but can not tell how much is x-100. "Expression too complex"

I think my favourite of all time was from a COBOL compiler on a Prime, back in 1989 or something: "Error 23 line 72 column 25 severity 3: Fatal. Either an IF is missing or an ELSE is missing or a THEN is missing or a period is missing or the compiler is broken." By "broken" I think it meant the user pressed Break, but it was still funny. And then, there's always the old Unix one when a recursive process never exited: "Panic: Heap Glutton!"

When I was first learning COBOL at university back in 1972, we used a CDC 6400 system. Its COBOL compiler would occasionally emit the message "Compiler lost place, attempting recovery." We used to refer to the compiler as the "do or die system" as it would try to compile even the worst, error-filled code. Nine years later, I became the Canadian Government representative to the CODASYL COBOL Committee, the developers of the language. The Chairman of the Committee at that time was Don Nelson, from CDC. Over a beer one night at my first meeting, I made a comment about that error message. Don burst out laughing and said, "I put that message in the compiler!"
