    Crash is the slang word for when a program fails. Sometimes use dump...

    "The clue train passed his station without stopping." - John Simmons / outlaw programmer "Real programmers just throw a bunch of 1s and 0s at the computer to see what sticks" - Pete O'Hanlon "Not only do you continue to babble nonsense, you can't even correctly remember the nonsense you babbled just minutes ago." - Rob Graham

      Crash is such a bad word. In our ISO 9001 managed company our boss looks that we never say 'crashed'. We have to say/write 'shows unexpected behavior'. In a .net training course with a external trainer we learned that the real prof expression for this is 'abgegurkt' (=gherkined, maybe nobody understands this german to english translation.)

            Screwed the Pooch. Bit the Big One. Spelunked the Chocolate Tunnel of Love. Choked. Quaffed the Hamster. Inexplicably failed to meet expected performance and reliability goals (management speak).

                                        Nothing - our applications don't crash. ;P They merely have unplanned stopoffs on the way to wellbeing.
