Answer / rizwana

The finally keyword can be used to provide a block of code
that is performed regardless of whether an exception is
signaled or not. The syntax is:
try
{
// tested statement(s);
}
catch (ExceptionName e1)
{
// trap handler statement(s);
}
catch (ExceptionName e2) // any number of catch statements
{
// display exception to screen
System.out.println("Exception: " + e2);
}
finally
{
// always executed block
}
