Answer
To effectively debug and ensure correct program behavior.
Compile-time errors prevent code from running, often due to syntax issues, while logic errors occur during execution and lead to incorrect results. For example, 'int total = price +;' is a compile-time error, while 'total = price - discount;' might be a logic error if meant to add a discount.
