Simple explanation: syntax errors occur when the compilers finds errors in your syntax. (before the code even ran at all) runtime errors occur when your code is already running

This would cause a syntax error: #include <iostream using std; int main ( cout >> “Hello World’::std ) This would cause a runtime error: #include <iostream> using namespace std; int main() { int * p = new int; *p = 27; cout << *p; //now pointing to nothing delete p; //nullptr exception cout << *p; }
