        //Remember,Exception is a superclass and Arithmetic Exception is a subclass of it.
        catch(Exception e){
            System.out.print("Generic Exception Catch");
    }
        /*this below exception is never reached because ArithmeticException is a subclass of Exception
          catch(ArithmeticException e)    -->  This is invalid because the exception has already been caught above.
         {
            System.out.print("This is never reached");
         }
         To fix above code, just reverse the order of both catch blocks.
