0101 try and catch
<![CDATA[
Enclose the code that you want to monitor inside a try block and catch clause.
The following program includes a try block and a catch clause that processes the ArithmeticException generated by the division-by-zero error:
public class Main {
public static void main(String args[]) {
int d, a;
try { // monitor a block of code.
d = 0;
a = 42 / d;
System.out.println("This will not be printed.");
} catch (ArithmeticException e) { // catch divide-by-zero error
System.out.println("Division by zero.");
}
System.out.println("After catch statement.");
}
}
This program generates the following output:
Division by zero.
Once an exception is thrown, program control transfers out of the try block into the catch block. Execution never returns to the try block from a catch.
The following code handles an exception and move on.
import java.util.Random;
public class Main {
public static void main(String args[]) {
int a = 0, b = 0, c = 0;
Random r = new Random();
for (int i = 0; i < 32000; i++) {
try {
b = r.nextInt();
c = r.nextInt();
a = 12345 / (b / c);
} catch (ArithmeticException e) {
System.out.println("Division by zero.");
a = 0; // set a to zero and continue
}
System.out.println("a: " + a);
}
}
}
