Question

An uncaught exception:

A.) Is a possible exception that never actually occurs during the execution of the program.

B.) Is an exception that occurs for which the matching catch clause is empty.

C.) Is an exception that occurs for which there are no matching catch clauses.

D.) Is another term for thrown exception.

Answer 1

An uncaught exception is an exception that occurs for which there are no matching catch clauses.

Step-by-step explanation:

An uncaught exception is an exception that occurs for which there are no matching catch clauses.

Answer option C is correct. When an exception is thrown in a program and there are no catch clauses that can handle it, it is considered an uncaught exception. This means that the program cannot recover from the exception and it will result in the termination of the program.

For example, let's say we have a program that reads a file. If the file does not exist, an FileNotFoundException will be thrown. If there is no catch clause to handle this exception, it will be an uncaught exception and the program will terminate.
