- If an exception is raised and the program does not handle it with a try/exceptstatement, what happens?arrow_forwardJava Exceptions: Your parents gave you an emergency cash card that has 2 restrictions: it can't be used to purchase alcohol, and the purchase price must be less than $100. Write a program segment in main() that will read 2 inputs from the user describing a purchase you are trying to make using the cash card: the item purchased (eg runners) and the purchase price (eg 79.99). Your code must check for the 2 restrictions mentioned above and generate exceptions if either one of them occurs (InvalidItemException or InvalidPurchasePriceException. Assume that these have already been coded so you don't need to write them). Your code must also deal with each exception by writing out an appropriate (specific) message stating what the problem is. If there is no problem your code should generate a "Payment accepted" message.arrow_forwardFinally, in a try/except statement, the finally suite runs only if the try suite's statements do not throw any exceptions.True or False?arrow_forward
- 3. The program shall: generate a random number from 1 to 50 for a player to guess; • display a message that indicates whether the player's guess is correct, too low, or too high; and prompt the user to keep on guessing until the correct value is entered 4. Create a try-catch structure that will handle two (2) exceptions. These are when the user inputs the following: a number that is out of range (1- 50) a letter or any non-numeric character 5. Prompt the user so that he can guess again if an exception is thrown. 6. Display the number of total guesses. Note: An invalid input (when an exception is thrown) is not considered a valid guess or attempt. Sample Output: Guess a number from 1 to 501 30 Too high. Try again. 15 Too high. Try again. 10 Too high. Try again. Too lov. Try again. gverty Invalid input. Guess a nunber from 1 to 501 51 Out of range Guess a nuaber from 1 to 501 Too lov. Try again. 8 Too lov. Try again.
