C# Exception and Error Handling

This is the repository for the LinkedIn Learning course C# Exception and Error Handling. The full course is available from LinkedIn Learning.

It’s just a fact that, despite all efforts to write the cleanest and most error-free programs, at some point you’re going to run into problems. Knowing how to properly handle error conditions and exceptions within your C# programs—before they affect user experience—is an absolute must. In this course, Joe Marini shows you how to work with C# exceptions and implement best-practice error handling protocols to make your applications resilient in the face of an unpredictable world.
