title: try-catch for division by zero
body: <p>My question is about try-catch blocks on a simple division by zero example. You see the first line of try? If I cast any of those two variables to the double the program  does not recognize the catch block. In my opinion, whether I cast or not only the catch block must be executed. What is wrong on this code?</p>
  
  <pre><code>public static void main(String[] args) {
  
      int pay=8,payda=0;  
  
      try {
  
          double result=pay/(double)payda; // if I cast any of the two variables, program does not recognize the catch block, why is it so?
          System.out.println(result);
          System.out.println("inside-try");
  
      } catch (Exception e) {
  
          System.out.println("division by zero exception");
          System.out.println("inside-catch");
  
      }
  }
  </code></pre>
