I found 2 small error in Chapter 6:
- page 314: ClassCastException: Thrown by the JVM when an attempt is made to cast an object to ...
- page 317: Third line: Common checked exceptions include the following:

I was also confused because a NumberFormat is stated as thrown by the programmer and not by the JVM but other threads in this forum seems to confirm this.

Correct! to cast an exception to a subclass should be to cast an object to a subclass

Correct again! Common runtime exceptions should be Common checked exceptions

I think this thread discusses the NumberFormatException and if it's thrown by programmer/JVM in great detail.

Hope it helps!
Kind regards,
