Thrown when an application attempts to use null in a case where an object is required. These include: Calling the instance method of a null object. Accessing or modifying the field of a null object. Taking the length of null as if it were an array. Accessing or modifying the slots of null as if it were an array. Throwing null as if it were a Throwable value. Applications should throw instances of this class to indicate other illegal uses of the null object.  NullPointerExceptionobjects may be constructed by the virtual machine as if suppression were disabled and/or the stack trace was notwritable.

To prevent application crashes you have handling exceptions. try { //some code } catch (Exception e) { //some code to handle errors }
