All Types of Errors in JavaScript

1. Syntax Errors:
- These occur when the JavaScript parser encounters syntax that does not conform to the

language rules.

- Example: Missing closing brackets, or using undeclared variables.

- Example Code:

console.log("Hello World!;

2. Reference Errors:
- Occur when a non-existent variable is referenced.

- Example: Trying to access a variable that has not been defined.

- Example Code:

console.log(myVariable); // Uncaught ReferenceError

3. Type Errors:
- Occur when a variable or parameter is not of a valid type.

- Example: Invoking a non-function as a function.

- Example Code:

let x = 5;

x(); // Uncaught TypeError

4. Range Errors:
- Occur when a value is not in the set or range of allowed values.

- Example: Trying to create an array with an invalid length.

- Example Code:

let arr = new Array(-1); // Uncaught RangeError

5. Eval Errors (Legacy):


- Occur with the misuse of the eval() function. These are less common in modern JavaScript as

eval is discouraged.
- Example: Using eval incorrectly.

6. URI Errors:
- Occur when there is an issue with the use of URI handling functions (encodeURI, decodeURI).

- Example: Passing malformed URI sequences.

- Example Code:

decodeURI('%'); // Uncaught URIError

7. Logical Errors:
- Occur due to flaws in the program logic.

- Example: Writing code that runs but does not produce the expected output.

- Example Code:

let total = 10 - 5; // Expecting 15 but logically incorrect.

8. Aggregate Errors (ES2021):


- Used with Promise.any() or other cases involving multiple errors.

- Example: Handling multiple errors collectively.

- Example Code:

let error = new AggregateError([

new Error("First Error"),

new Error("Second Error")

], "Multiple errors occurred");

9. Custom Errors:
- Developers can define their own error types for specific cases.

- Example Code:

class CustomError extends Error {

constructor(message) {

super(message);

this.name = "CustomError";

}
throw new CustomError("This is a custom error!");

Error Handling in JavaScript:

To handle these errors, JavaScript provides the try-catch-finally construct:

Example:

try {

// Code that may throw an error

let num = x / 0;

} catch (error) {

console.error("An error occurred:", error.message);

} finally {

console.log("This will run regardless of an error.");
