2.6. Error Handling and Optimization

Try these first

1. 1.

   What is a try-catch block used for?

   Hint

   Consider its role in managing errors.

2. 2.

   Name a basic technique for error handling.

   Hint

   Think of simple control flow statements.

3. 3.

   What is the primary purpose of error handling in programming?

   • Implementation
   • Bug Fixing
   • Managing Errors

   Hint

   Think about what happens when something goes wrong.

4. 4.

   True or False: Performance tuning is only necessary in basic programming.

   • True
   • False

   Hint

   Consider the applications with high performance requirements.

5. 5.

   Design a program that includes both basic and advanced error handling techniques. Describe how each technique contributes to program robustness.

   Hint

   Think about the difference in approaches between basic and advanced methods.

6. 6.

   Analyze a given piece of code for potential concurrency issues. Suggest optimizations that could reduce or eliminate these issues.

   Hint

   Consider how locking mechanisms might help.
