Hello, and get ready for some behind-the-scenes intrigue! We're about to delve into the logical errors in Python. These are the sneaky bugs that cause unexpected output even if there are no syntax errors. Imagine a situation where you've programmed a computer to operate a coffee machine. Your program runs smoothly, but instead of producing a latte, the machine makes a cappuccino! That's a logical error! To understand the real-world impact of such errors, consider an E-commerce platform where a logical error, resulting in an incorrect calculation of total cart value, leads to significant financial ramifications. Shall we uncover these silent disruptors?

Logical errors are non-syntax-related mistakes that cause your program to behave differently than expected. No error messages ensue in case of logical errors. For instance, in a weather app, using the wind-chill index instead of temperature readings would result in logical errors. Although the program would run without any error message, the output temperature readings would be logically incorrect.

To detect logical errors, look out for unexpected behavior. For example, consider this example:

This loop that should iterate ten times will run indefinitely due to a logical error, causing an infinite loop. The program wouldn't respond with any error messages, making such errors difficult to recognize, but the output of the behavior would be logically incorrect.

Debugging entails tracing the program flow step-by-step to identify where it diverges from the expected path. A common debugging strategy is inserting strategic print statements to display crucial variables. Take a look at this:
