If the code in a method can potentially throw a checked exception, then that method must:

a.) handle the exception

b.) have a throws clause listed in the method header

c.) neither handle the exception nor have a throws clause listed in the method header

d.) either handle the exception or have a throws clause listed in the method header

d.) either handle the exception or have a throws clause listed in the method header

Explanation:

A checked exception that can be thrown in a method, necessarily needs to be handled in the method in one of the two ways:

Handle the exception in code Have a throws clause in method header

For example, let us see both:

a)

public void mymethod () {

/ / Exception handling using try/catch block

try{

}

catch (IOException e) {

}

}

b)

public void mymethod () throws IOException{

/ / Exception in the throws clause

}
