EXP-13 Exception Handling

The document explains exception handling in C++, which is the process of managing unexpected events during program execution using try, catch, and throw keywords. It provides examples demonstrating how to handle division by zero and array out-of-bounds errors. The examples illustrate the use of multiple catch statements to handle different types of exceptions.

Exception Handling in C++


 An exception is an unexpected event that occurs during program execution. For example,
divide_by_zero = 7 / 0;
 The above code causes an exception as it is not possible to divide a number by 0.
 The process of handling these types of errors in C++ is known as exception handling.
 In C++, we handle exceptions with the help of the try and catch blocks, along with
the throw keyword.
 try - code that may raise an exception
 throw - throws an exception when an error is detected
 catch - code that handles the exception thrown by the throw keyword
 Note: The throw statement is not compulsory, especially if we use standard C++ exceptions.

Example 1: C++ Exception Handling


// program to divide two numbers
// throws an exception when the divisor is 0

#include <iostream>
using namespace std;

int main() {

double numerator, denominator, divide;

cout << "Enter numerator: ";


cin >> numerator;

cout << "Enter denominator: ";


cin >> denominator;

try {

// throw an exception if denominator is 0


if (denominator == 0)
throw 0;

// not executed if denominator is 0


divide = numerator / denominator;
cout << numerator << " / " << denominator << " = " << divide << endl;
}

catch (int num_exception) {


cout << "Error: Cannot divide by " << num_exception << endl;
}
return 0;
}

Output 1
Enter numerator: 72
Enter denominator: 0
Error: Cannot divide by 0
Output 2
Enter numerator: 72
Enter denominator: 3
72 / 3 = 24

Example 2: C++ Multiple catch Statements

#include <iostream>
using namespace std;

int main() {

double numerator, denominator, arr[4] = {0.0, 0.0, 0.0, 0.0};


int index;

cout << "Enter array index: ";


cin >> index;

try {

// throw exception if array out of bounds


if (index >= 4)
throw "Error: Array out of bounds!";

// not executed if array is out of bounds


cout << "Enter numerator: ";
cin >> numerator;

cout << "Enter denominator: ";


cin >> denominator;

// throw exception if denominator is 0


if (denominator == 0)
throw 0;

// not executed if denominator is 0


arr[index] = numerator / denominator;
cout << arr[index] << endl;
}

// catch "Array out of bounds" exception


catch (const char* msg) {
cout << msg << endl;
}

// catch "Divide by 0" exception


catch (int num) {
cout << "Error: Cannot divide by " << num << endl;
}

// catch any other exception


catch (...) {
cout << "Unexpected exception!" << endl;
}

return 0;
}
Output 1
Enter array index: 5
Error: Array out of bounds!
Output 2
Enter array index: 2
Enter numerator: 5
Enter denominator: 0
Error: Cannot divide by 0
Output 3
Enter array index: 2
Enter numerator: 5
Enter denominator: 2
