I. Introduction:
/**
An exception is a case where the programm gets disturbed and cannot continue
to run; for example, when computing and falls in the circumstance to compute
a division by zero. We want to wrap this event in Exception clause et allow
the program to rum. We often encounter Exceptions like IOException (I/O). SQLException
(Database access), EOFException (End Of File), ServletExcepton, ArithmeticException, etc ...
The Exception method has three clauses: try, catch, and finally. In the first, we put a related
code; in the second what to do in the case of the disturbance, and in the third, other statements.
We hide the result of an exception by throw or throws.
ArthmeticException stems from RuntimeException after Exception , Throwable, and Object
classes. Here are some examples:

I. Examples:
