I actually saw a couple of programming languages designed around that
concept. One of them was termed "quantum", in that any operation in it
had a 90% chance of success, and a 10% chance of alternative behavior.
The other language was designed such that all program logic was
controlled through purposefully causing errors.
I don't remember the name of either language, but I'm sure others here do.
