Study Notes
C++ Exception Handling
- Two types of exceptions: synchronous (within the program's control) and asynchronous (beyond the program's control)
Keywords and Purpose
throw
keyword: used to throw an exception in C++try
keyword: represents a block of code that may potentially raise an exceptioncatch
