      This is a reucurring theme at this specific subject unfortunately. He doesn’t seem to put much effort into it, as most slides are just plain text and nothing else. I stopped attending after the second class.

        That truly sucks. Yeah, some professors can be like that. I had a math professor offer bonus points to the first 3 students completed the assignment, only for the majority to cheat and just look up the answer and turn that in. It became a contest of who could copy the fastest and one student even admitted to doing it, but she just didn’t care and gave points to the cheaters anyway.

      Thanks for looking that up, because the application exception is the way I originally learned this myself. And I’ve been doing .net for 20 years.

        Do you guys still use it in practice though? I have never seen or heard about this until now.

          I don’t create many exceptions in c#. The way I handle errors doesn’t require it for (damn near) everything. Java makes throwing named errors more important, and consequently I wrote more for Java.
