Difference between error and exception..

Answer / modi

An error is an irrecoverable condition occurring at runtime.
Such as OutOfMemory error. These JVM errors and you can not
repair them at runtime. While exceptions are conditions that
occur because of bad input etc. e.g. FileNotFoundException
will be thrown if the specified file does not exist. Or a
NullPointerException will take place if you try using a null
reference. In most of the cases it is possible to recover
from an exception (probably by giving user a feedback for
entering proper values etc.).
