How exceptions can be handled?

Exception is an object, that describes the exception.

When exception occurs, an object representing that expression is thrown.

This thrown exception can then be caught and can be handled.


Keywords used

try: A block which contains the code that might cause an exception.

catch: Catches the expression so that we can handle it.

throw: Used when we want to manually throw an exception.

finally: Any code that has to be executed after try block ends.
How exception handling looks like

try{

//code that can cause an exception

catch{

//code to handle exception

Finally{ //code that has to be executed after try block ends }
