EXCEPTION

The PHP script defines a custom exception class 'Aime' that extends the built-in Exception class. It attempts to perform a division operation where the denominator is zero, which triggers a DivisionByZeroError, caught and rethrown as an Aime exception with a custom message. Finally, the script catches the Aime exception and outputs the corresponding error message.

explain every block of code in the following codes:

<?php class Aime extends Exception { public function __construct($message)


{ parent::__construct($message); } } try { try { $numerator = 10; $denominator = 0;
if ($denominator == 0) { throw new DivisionByZeroError(); } $result = $numerator /
$denominator; } catch (DivisionByZeroError $e) { throw new Aime("You tried to
divide by zero!"); } } catch (Aime $e) { echo "Caught an exception: " . $e-
>getMessage(); } ?>

let’s break this down piece by piece:

<?php
class Aime extends Exception {
public function __construct($message) {
parent::__construct($message);
}
}
<?php: This indicates the beginning of a PHP script.

class Aime extends Exception {}: This defines a custom exception class named Aime
that extends the built-in Exception class.

public function __construct($message) {}: This is the constructor method for the
Aime class, which takes a $message parameter.

parent::__construct($message);: This calls the parent (Exception) class's


constructor, passing the $message.

try {
try {
$numerator = 10;
$denominator = 0;

if ($denominator == 0) {
throw new DivisionByZeroError();
}

$result = $numerator / $denominator;


} catch (DivisionByZeroError $e) {
throw new Aime("You tried to divide by zero!");
}
} catch (Aime $e) {
echo "Caught an exception: " . $e->getMessage();
}
?>
try { ... }: This block tries to execute the code within it, and any exceptions
thrown will be caught by the catch blocks.

$numerator = 10; $denominator = 0;: These lines define and initialize the variables
numerator and denominator.

if ($denominator == 0) { throw new DivisionByZeroError(); }: This checks if the


denominator is zero and, if it is, throws a DivisionByZeroError.

$result = $numerator / $denominator;: This would normally execute the division


operation, but it's skipped if the denominator is zero.
catch (DivisionByZeroError $e) { throw new Aime("You tried to divide by zero!"); }:
This catches a DivisionByZeroError and then throws a custom Aime exception with a
specific message.

catch (Aime $e) { echo "Caught an exception: " . $e->getMessage(); }: This catches
the Aime exception and prints the custom error message.

In essence, this script attempts a division by zero, catches the standard error for
this, converts it to a custom error message, and then catches and displays that
custom error message.
