question 4

Multiple Choice

Why does the following code cause a compiler error?
Try
{
Number = Integer.parseInt(str) ;
}
Catch (IllegalArgumentException e)
{
System.out.println("Bad number format.") ;
}
Catch (NumberFormatException e)
{
System.out.println(str + " is not a number.") ;
}

• A) Because you can have only one catch clause in a try statement
• B) Because NumberFormatException inherits from IllegalArgumentException. The code should handle NumberFormatException before IllegalArgumentException
• C) Because the Integer.parseInt method does not throw a NumberFormatException
• D) Because the Integer.parseInt method does not throw an IllegalArgumentException
