enbugging rate Explanation: エンバグ is "enbug", which means to incorporate a new bug into a program. I didn't actually find any hits for "enbugging rate", but there are plenty for enbug. You could say "rate of inclusion of new bugs." -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 7 mins (2007-03-01 01:46:12 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Or "rate of incorporating new bugs" -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 41 mins (2007-03-01 02:20:23 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- http://www.enbug.org/ -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 44 mins (2007-03-01 02:22:40 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- http://www.pragmaticprogrammer.com/articles/jan_03_enbug.pdf ("The Art of Enbugging") -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 44 mins (2007-03-01 02:23:03 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- (Note that enbug.org is not maintained by a native English speaker.:)) |

It means... Explanation: how much error-prone the software is. Like us, like translators, the software is also error-prone with varying degrees. And, there are many factors to contribute to inviting errors (enbugging the software). Some programming languages are said to be more error-prone than others, and some programmers are....., you know what I mean. How well/poorly the code is constructed, organized, written, and maintained (coding is almost always a group work) is also a factor. So, エンバグ率が高い means more error-prone, more vulnerable to invite bugs. Both terms, エンバグ and エンバグ効率 are made in Japan. Enbug is a verb that takes an object (enbug the module, enbug the software). The links Casey gave you have more information. They go on to suggest that developers intentionally enbug the software for the purpose of debugging and writing better programs. I see the point, but in reality there are always enough bugs to deal with, without making any efforts ;-), and certainly this claim falls outside of the context you gave above. |
