'''Exception handling syntax''' is the set of keywords and/or structures provided by a computer [[programming language]] to allow [[exception handling (programming)|exception handling]], which separates the handling of errors that arise during a program's operation from its ordinary processes. Syntax for exception handling varies between [[programming language]]s, partly to cover semantic differences but largely to fit into each language's overall [[syntax#Syntax in computer science|syntactic structure]]. Some languages do not call the relevant concept "[[exception handling]]"; others may not have direct facilities for it, but can still provide means to implement it.
Most commonly, error handling uses a <code>try...[catch...][finally...]</code> block, and errors are created via a <code>throw</code> statement, but there is significant variation in naming and syntax.
