Remember
| Exception: error while running |
| Not handled? The program crashes |
No typing mistake. So why did it crash? An exception is an error while running. Divide by zero, zero division error. Int of letters, value error. Bad position, index error. It is a runtime error. Unhandled, it crashes the program.
