It's an old term that has just stuck around.
The story is told of people who were working on one of the early computers. The computer suddenly stopped working and everyone started going over every component individually.
That computer used mechanical relays to make many of the circuits function, and the story is that a moth became trapped in one of the closed relays. Since the moth wing did not allow the relay to function properly it had to be removed before the computer would work.
From that experience came the term "bug". It was said that the computer stopped working because it had a "bug" in it.
Of course it follows that once the "bug" was removed, the computer continued to work. From that came the term "debugging".
The term is used in all aspects of computer hardware and software.
Many programmers and computer professionalsstill use the term "bug" to describe any problem with computer hardware or code.
