Error Handling

• An error that arises through mistakes in coding or through incorrect data that is entered by the user is called an “exception”
• Such errors that are encountered while a program runs are said to be “thrown”
• Programmers try to anticipate these errors and either prevent them or solve them before they happen
• Java uses the “Try... Catch...” process in order to try running a block of code to test for errors and then catch an error if it occurs
