Reviews

Exception handling in Java is extremely important because it helps maintain the normal, desired flow of the program even when unexpected events occur. If exceptions are not handled, programs may crash or requests may fail. In this course, you will analyze the syntax of exception handling, case by case, to understand what could happen in each variation. You’ll start by looking into multiple cases using the try-catch block, things like what happens if you throw multiple exceptions. You’ll then look at exception handling and use cases around the syntax of the usage of finally, another popular exception block. Lastly, you’ll experiment with the throw block and creating your own custom exceptions. By the end of this course, you will have a good grip on exception handling and its various syntaxes and use cases.

"You guys are the gold standard of crash-courses... Narrow enough that it doesn't need years of study or a full blown book to get the gist, but broad enough that an afternoon of Googling doesn't cut it."
