class ExcDemo2 {

  static void Main() {

    try {

      ExcTest.GenException();

    }

    catch (IndexOutOfRangeException) {

      // Catch the exception.

      Console.WriteLine("Index out-of-bounds!");

    }

    Console.WriteLine("After catch block.");

  }

}

This program produces the following output, which is the same as that produced by the 

first version of the program shown earlier:

Before exception is generated.

nums[0]: 0

nums[1]: 1

nums[2]: 2

nums[3]: 3

Index out-of-bounds!

After catch block.

As explained, because 

GenException( )

 is called from within a 

try

 block, the exception that 

it generates (and does not catch) is caught by the
