Throwing our Own Exceptions in Java

Throwing our exceptions: There may be times when we would like to throw our exception we can do this by using the keyword throw as follows.             Throw new throwable subclass; Ex :  throw new ArithmeticException ( );          throw new NumberFormatException ( ) ; Note that exception is a subclass of throw able and therefore myException is a subclass of throw able class. A object of a class that extends throwable can be thrown and caught. import java .lang. Exception; class myException (String message) {  super  (message);  }   class testMyException   {   public static void main (String args[ ] )    {      int x= 5,  y=100;           try           {            float z =(float) x/(float)y ;            if(z < 0.01)            {             throw new myException (“ number is too small) ;             }           }             catch ( myException e)            {             System.out.println (“ caught my exception”);             System.out.println (e. getMessage ( ) );             }             finally             {             System.out.println (“ I am always here”);             }       }      } The object which contains the error message.“Number is too small” is caught by catch block. which then displays the message using the        getMessage ( ) method.
