Answer / janet

The exception class defines mild error conditions that your
program encounters.
Ex: Arithmetic Exception,FileNotFound Exception

Exception can occur when
--> Try to open the file,which does not exist
--> the network connection is disrupted.
--> operands being manipulated are out of prescribed
ranges.
--> the class file you are interested in loading is
missing.
The error class defines serious error conditions that
you should not attempt to recover from .in most cases it is
advisable to let the program terminate when such an error
is encountered.
Ex. Running out of memory error,stack overflow error.
