All the code that is to be tested in the program is to be contained in the try block. Try block executes all the code and if exist, It passes the exception to the catch block.
The try block’s remaining statements won’t run if an exception arises at that specific statement. Therefore, it is advised against keeping code in a try block that won’t throw an exception.

Syntax:

try{
    // Block of code
}

Catch Block:

All the code that is executed in the try block. if it shows any type of exception will be thrown to the catch block. It is used to handle the Exception by declaring the type of exception within the parameter.
