Today I learned that Exceptions and Errors in Java are not the same thing.
✅ Exceptions are problems that a program can handle, such as IOException or NullPointerException.
✅ Errors are serious issues that are usually beyond the application’s control, such as OutOfMemoryError.
I also learned that Exceptions are divided into:
Checked Exceptions
Unchecked Exceptions
Understanding this distinction helped me better understand Java’s error-handling mechanism.

A brief introduction to the difference between Exceptions and Errors in Java. Exceptions (like IOException or NullPointerException) are recoverable problems a program can handle, while Errors (like OutOfMemoryError) represent serious issues beyond the application's control. Exceptions are further divided into Checked and Unchecked categories.
