Java Exception Handling Made Simple

A Little Fun With Try-Catch

We'll walk through multiple cases using the try-catch block in a quiz-based style.

We'll cover the following...

Let’s briefly go over the syntax and then jump straight into the cases.

Java
class Exceptions {
    public static void main( String args[] ) {
            
        try{
            // exception thrown here
        }catch(Exception e){
            // exception caught here  
        }
    }
}

The try block contains the block of code where you (the programmer) believe an exception might occur e.g., the user enters 0 as an input for a divide operation, which might result in an ArithmeticException. To prevent the system from breaking, those exceptions are handled in the catch block.

Cases

Here, we’ll discuss different variations in which the try-catch block can occur and you can test your understanding by completing the quizzes below.

Can we throw multiple exceptions?
