How to handle the empty stack exception?
SolutionThis example shows how to handle the empty stack exception by using s.empty(), s.pop() methods of Stack class and System.currentTimeMillis()method of Date class.
import java.util.Date; import java.util.EmptyStackException; import java.util.Stack; public class ExceptionalTest { public static void main(String[] args) { int count = 1000000; Stack s = new Stack(); System.out.println("Testing for empty stack"); long s1 = System.currentTimeMillis(); for (int i = 0; i <= count; i++) if (!s.empty())s.pop(); long s2 = System.currentTimeMillis(); System.out.println((s2 - s1) + " milliseconds"); System.out.println("Catching EmptyStackException"); s1 = System.currentTimeMillis(); for (int i = 0; i <= count; i++) { try { s.pop(); } catch (EmptyStackException e) { } } s2 = System.currentTimeMillis(); System.out.println((s2 - s1) + " milliseconds"); } }Result
The above code sample will produce the following result.
Testing for empty stack 16 milliseconds Catching EmptyStackException 3234 milliseconds
