Description of Coursework #1:

Question-1 Exception Handling (a) Write a program that illustrates rethrowing an exception. Define methods someMethod and someMethod2. Method someMethod2 should initially throw an exception. Method someMethod should call someMethod2, catch the exception and rethrow it. Call someMethod in main and catch the rethrown exception. Print the stack trace of this exception. (b) Use inheritance to create an exception superclass called ExceptionA and exception subclasses ExceptionB and ExceptionC. ExceptionB inherits from ExceptionA and ExceptionC inherits from ExceptionB. Write a program to demonstrate that the catch block for type ExceptionA cathes exceptionB and ExceptionC

Question-2 Thread Synchronization Write a program that shows Thread-Synchronization technique to avoid race condition issues and deadlock condition. You may use Java utilities such as Array Blocking Queue (for array users) or Lock Reentrant Lock (for variable shared users).
