Error handling with try-catch
JavaScriptAll snippets in this category →
Posted on With try and catch, we can react to errors that could happen in our code. We can recover from those errors by following a different code path or doing cleanup. If the function does not throw an error, the execution skips the catch-block.
// `try` to do something that could fail
try {
// this may or may not be possible
makeItBeFriday()
// if we get here, the function worked
console.log("It is Friday now!")
} catch (error) {
// if something in `try` fails and throws an error, we end up here
console.log("Sorry, it is not Friday now.")
}// `try` to do something that could fail
try {
// this may or may not be possible
makeItBeFriday()
// if we get here, the function worked
console.log("It is Friday now!")
} catch (error) {
// if something in `try` fails and throws an error, we end up here
console.log("Sorry, it is not Friday now.")
