Question

what should you place in the blank in the following code to enable the program to handle errors that occur when the calculatereward() method executes?
start
try
calculatereward()
endtry
______
// the program continues
stop
a declarations
exception e = new exception()
throw e
b. catch
exception e = new exception()
output \oops! something went wrong.\
endcatch
c. catch(exception e)
output \oops! something went wrong.\
endcatch
d. code to create a basic exception class

Explanation:

To handle errors in a try block, a catch block is needed. Option a re - throws the exception without proper handling. Option b's catch syntax is incorrect as it tries to declare the exception inside the catch block in a non - standard way. Option d is about creating an exception class, not handling the error from calculateReward(). Option c has the correct catch syntax with a parameter to catch the exception and then outputs an error message, which is the proper way to handle the error from the try block.

Answer:

c. catch(Exception e)
output "Oops! Something went wrong."
endcatch
