In computer science, an 'exception' typically refers to an abnormal condition or error that occurs during the execution of a program. Exception handling is a mechanism designed to respond to these exceptional situations, ensuring that the program does not crash due to errors but can recover or terminate gracefully. Exceptions can be categorized into hardware exceptions, which are typically triggered by the CPU or hardware devices, such as division by zero errors or memory access errors, and software exceptions, triggered by errors or unexpected situations in the program code, such as a file not found or a network connection failure. Programming languages usually provide try-catch constructs to catch and handle exceptions, enabling more robust and reliable programs. Furthermore, 'Exception' may also refer to a Japanese anime series set in a future where humanity is forced to leave Earth and uses 3D bioprinting technology to create exploration teams on new planets. The anime tells a series of horror stories triggered by printing errors. The anime series was created by novelist and film director Hirotaka Adachi, with character designs by Yoshitaka Amano and music by Ryuichi Sakamoto.
