C# try/catch

In C# programming, exception handling is performed by try/catch statement. The try block in C# is used to place the code that may throw exception. The catch block is used to handled the exception. The catch block must be preceded by try block.

C# example without try/catch

1. using System;  
2. public class ExExample  
3. {  
4.     public static void Main(string[] args)  
5.     {  
6.         int a = 10;  
7.         int b = 0;  
8.         int x = a/b;    
9.         Console.WriteLine("Rest of the code");  
10.     }  
11. }  

Output:

Unhandled Exception: System.DivideByZeroException: Attempted to divide by zero.
