Help wanted ! PLease explain what is try and catch use for .

[Tom Salo]

As the topic said, Could anyone please explain what is try and catch in Java means please.
Also is that the catch always will be use after we use try ?
e.g
try
{
// Some code here
}
catch
{
// Some Code here
}

[James Chegwidden]

Try /catch is used to handle exceptions.

Try must always be in tandem with either a catch and/or a finally. It cannot be alone.

[Cindy Glass]

Try means "execute the following code. If there is a problem look in the associated catch blocks to see how to handle the problem"
Catch means "if this is the problem that you ran into, this is what you should do about it". Normally this includes formatting some sort of message to the user or the console.

[Dirk Schreckmann]

When I began to learn about Exceptions in Java, I read (and reread a few times):

The Exceptions section of Sun's Java Tutorial

Chapter 10 of Bruce Eckel's Thinking In Java book (available as a free download through BruceEckel.com)

Chapters 80 and 81 of Bradley Kjell's Introduction to Computer Science using Java

Good Luck.
