Is a program required to catch all exceptions that might happen?

  1. No. You can write a program to catch just the exceptions you want.

  2. No. But if a program catches one type of exception it must catch all other types as well.

  3. Yes. If a program is not written to catch all exceptions it will not compile.

  4. Yes. A program can not do I/O unless it catches all exceptions.


Correct Option: A

AI Explanation

To answer this question, you need to understand exception handling in programming.

Option A) No. You can write a program to catch just the exceptions you want. This option is correct. In programming, you have the flexibility to catch specific exceptions that you anticipate might occur and handle them accordingly. You can use try-catch blocks to catch specific exceptions and handle them appropriately. It is not necessary to catch all possible exceptions that might happen in a program.

Option B) No. But if a program catches one type of exception it must catch all other types as well. This option is incorrect. In programming, you are not required to catch all types of exceptions if you don't want to. You can choose to catch only specific exceptions that you want to handle. There is no requirement to catch all other types of exceptions.

Option C) Yes. If a program is not written to catch all exceptions it will not compile. This option is incorrect. An exception is a runtime error, and catching exceptions is not a requirement for the program to compile. Exceptions are generally handled at runtime, and the program will compile regardless of whether or not you catch all exceptions.

Option D) Yes. A program can not do I/O unless it catches all exceptions. This option is incorrect. While catching exceptions related to input/output (I/O) operations is good practice to handle potential errors, it is not a requirement to catch all exceptions for performing I/O operations. Exceptions related to I/O operations can be caught selectively based on the specific needs of the program.

The correct answer is A) No. You can write a program to catch just the exceptions you want. This option is correct because you have the flexibility to catch specific exceptions that you anticipate might occur and handle them accordingly. It is not necessary to catch all possible exceptions that might happen in a program.
