Exception:
In C++, the exception is an object used to signal the unexpected error occurred during a
- An exception has been thrown when an error has been occurred in a program.
Explanation of Solution
Throw point:
The throw point is a statement which uses the keyword “throw” to throw an exception which occurred while executing the program.
Example:
Consider the following code segment which throws an exception when it receives value “0” for the argument “b”:
//Function "division" is used to divide two integers
double division(int a, int b)
{
//The value of "b" is 0
if (b == 0)
{
//throw point
//throw an exception contains message
throw "ERROR: denominator should not be "0".\n " ;
}
//otherwise, do the division
else
{
//return the result
return static_ cast<double>(a)/b;
}
}
In the above example, the “throw” statement is used to throw a message and the statement is referred as “throw point”.
- After the execution of “throw” statement, the program control will move to another part in the same program.
