Create a brief program that demonstrates use of a Java exception. For example, you could use InputMismatchException and ask the user to input an integer and show that the program executes correctly if they enter an integer and also show that the exception is thrown and a proper error message is displayed to the user if they input a string of letters. You may want to try it with and without a try catch block for practice, but either one will be sufficient for credit.

Answer:

Here is the program that demonstrates the use of JAVA exception:

import java.util.Scanner; //to accept input from user

public class Main { //class name

public static void main(String[] args) { //start of main method

Scanner input = new java.util.Scanner(System.in); //creates Scanner class object to accept input from user

int number1 = 0; //stores the first integer value

int number2 = 0; //stores the second integer value

while(true) { //keeps looping until user enters integer value

System.out.println("Enter 2 integers to perform addition: "); //prompts user to enter two integer values

try { //defines a chunk of code to check for errors

number1 = input.nextInt(); //reads input integer 1

number2 = input.nextInt(); //reads input integer 2

break; }

catch (java.util.InputMismatchException e) { // defines a code chunk to execute if an error occurs in the try code chunk

System.out.println("Input must be an integer "); //displays this message if user enters anything other than an integer value

input.nextLine(); } } // reads input from user again until user enters both integer type values

System.out.println("The sum is: " + (number1+number2)); } } //if user enters 2 integers then computes and displays the sum of two integer values

Step-by-step explanation:

The program uses InputMismatchException exception and asks the user to input two integers and computes the sum of two integers if user enters integers otherwise an exception InputMismatchException is thrown and a error message Input must be an integer is displayed to the user if they input a string of letters instead o f integer values. Here while loop is used which keeps executing until user enters both the integer values. After the user enters correct values, the sum of the two integers are computed and result is displayed on output screen. The screenshot of program and its output is attached.

Another program asks the user to input an integer and the program executes correctly if they enter an integer but exception InputMismatchException is thrown with an error message that is is displayed to the user if they input a string of letters. Here is the program:

import java.util.Scanner;

public class Main {

public static void main(String[] args) {

Scanner input = new java.util.Scanner(System.in);

int number1 = 0;

while(true) {

System.out.println("Enter an integer value: ");

try {

number1 = input.nextInt();

break; }

catch (java.util.InputMismatchException e) {

System.out.println("Input must be an integer ");

input.nextLine(); } }

System.out.println("The program executed correctly!"); } }
