Question

State the type of errors if any in the following statements:

(i) switch ( 2 );

(ii) System.out.println(670/0);





pls answer ​

Answer 1

Answer:

(i)switch(2);

• This is a syntax error, there should be no semicolon after switch statement

The correct Statement is:-

switch(2)

____________

ii)System.out.println(670/0);

• Division by zero is a runtime error.

Answer 2

I. A switch statement can't be written without a body.

     It is termed as a Syntax error.

     It can be fixed by adding { } instead of a semicolon.

II. 670 / 0 causes an Arithmetic Exception.

      It is termed as a Runtime error.

      It can be prevented by using a try-catch block or altogether avoiding division with zero by designing the code in such a way.
