In Java, exception handling is accomplished using try-catch blocks.
The try block contains code that may throw an exception during execution.
If an exception arises, Java looks for a matching catch block to handle that specific exception type.
The catch block includes code that specifies how to respond to the exception, preventing the program from crashing.
- The final (actually finally) block is used to execute code regardless of whether an exception occurs.
- The throw keyword is used to manually throw an exception.
- The word except is not a Java keyword; it's used in Python.
Therefore, to handle exceptions in Java, the correct keyword is catch.
