'e' is an object of class Exception. name of object can be anything as per your choice.

It defines an object that will hold the exception information, once occurred.

its not just syntax. but its not meaning 'all expections' always. you can use something like this for a method: obj.methodname(Parameter par = new Parameter); and 'try' is like that.

also we use something like that for loop(not exactly): for(new i; i<5; i++){} here we use 'i' wich means integer(but the name and 'being a single character' is optional). there we use 'e' for exception

Yep. (declares a refrence data type of Exception class) Exception class is a super class. All the exceptions are the sub classes and inherit features from the Exception class.
