Exception handling is a way to make sure ur code doesn't crash when something unexpected occurs. For example u have a code that takes 2 input and returns their division e.g int x = sc.nextInt(); int y = sc.nextInt(); int result = x/y; An exception occurs if y=0(Arithmetic exception) which will cause the code to crash if not handled. To handle: try { int x = sc.nextInt(); int y = sc.nextInt(); int result = x/y; } catch(ArithmeticException e){ System.out.println("Division by zero"); }

Use "try ... catch ..." to control the exception, otherwise you will get an error.

if you have large code in file and got exception then handle by try catch. ..no need to read whole code by compiler.. it makes efficiency in programming.
