The ArithmeticException
occurs when an arithmetic operation yields an error.
Example
The ArithmeticException
is thrown in the following example because it divides an integer by zero:
public class DivideByZero {public static void main(String[] args) {int x = 9/0;}}
The output would look like this:
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.ArithmeticException: / by zeroat DivideByZero.main(DivideByZero.java:3)
