[Oracle interview]How does an exception permeate through the code?

An  unhandled exception moves up the method stack in search of a matching When an  exception is thrown from a code which is wrapped in a try block followed by  one or more catch blocks, a search is made for matching catch block. If a  matching type is found then that block will be invoked. If a matching type is  not found then the exception moves up the method stack and reaches the caller  method. Same procedure is repeated if the caller method is included in a try  catch block. This process continues until a catch block handling the  appropriate type of exception is found. If it does not find such a block then  finally the program terminates.
