Explain the difference between a system fault and a system failure.

Explain the difference between a system fault and a system failure.
Ans: System fault: A characteristic of a software system that can lead to a system error. The fault is the inclusion of the code to add 1 hour to the time of the last transmission, without a check if the time is greater than or equal to 23.00. System faults do not always result in system errors and system errors do not necessarily result in system failures.
System failure: An event that occurs at some point in time when the system does not deliver a service as expected by its users. No weather data is transmitted because the time is invalid. System reliability and availability problems are mostly caused by system failures.
