Handling Errors: Advanced Topics in Exceptions

Skillsoft issued completion badges are earned based on viewing the percentage required or receiving a passing score when assessment is required. While handling exceptions is enough for most programmers, if you are building an app that other developers consume, you should know how to throw exceptions proactively and the various options available in Java in this regard. This is precisely the focus of this course. Learn about throwing an exception based on your conditions in a Java program and how nested function calls influence exception throwing and handling. You'll get a chance to explicitly throw an exception using the throw keyword, add complexity to your code by throwing different exceptions based on different conditions, and build a customized Exception class to define an exception that is not covered by Java's library. Having finished this course, you'll have the knowledge to throw exceptions and run your program without breaking its flow.
