JavaScript Errors Throw and Try to Catch

JavaScript uses throw to create custom errors and try...catch to handle them, preventing the program from crashing. The finally block ensures that code runs after error handling, regardless of success or failure.

• throw: Creates custom errors and stops code execution.
• try...catch: Catches and handles errors to prevent crashes.
• finally: Runs code after try and catch, regardless of errors.
• Custom Errors: Create custom error types by extending the Error class.

we make use of 'dadalert' which is not a reserved keyword and is neither defined hence we get the error.  

Syntax

The try statement allows you to check whether a specific block of code contains an error or not. The catch statement allows you to display the error if any are found in the try block.

try {
 Try Block to check for errors.
}
catch(err) {
 Catch Block to display errors.
}

our catch block will not run as there's no error in the above code and hence we get the output 'Value of variable a is: 10'.

JavaScript Throw Statement

The throw statement allows you to create custom error messages and throw exceptions manually.

throw new Error("Error message");

• throw creates a custom error.
• It can be used to stop the execution of a program and pass control to error handling mechanisms.
• You can throw any type of object (string, number, object, etc.), but it's common to throw an instance of Error.

The finally Block

The finally Statement runs unconditionally after the execution of the try/catch block. Its syntax is

Output: The Finally Block can also override the message of the catch block so be careful while using it.

Creating Custom Error Types

You can create custom error types by extending the built-in Error class. This can be useful for more specific error handling.
