46.	What are runtime exceptions?
	Runtime exceptions are those exceptions that are thrown at runtime because of either wrong input data or because of wrong business logic etc. These are not checked by the compiler at compile time.

47.

What is the difference between error and an exception?

An error is an irrecoverable condition occurring at runtime. Such as OutOfMemory error.
These JVM errors and you cannot repair them at runtime. While exceptions are conditions that occur because of bad input etc. Example: FileNotFoundException will be thrown if the specified file does not exist. Or aNullPointerException will take place if you try using a null reference.
In most of the cases it is possible to recover from an exception (probably by giving user a feedback for entering proper values etc.).

48.	How to create custom exceptions?
	Your class should extend class Exception, or some more specific type thereof.

49.	If I want an object of my class to be thrown as an exception object, what should I do?
	The class should extend from Exception class. Or you can extend your class from some more precise exception type also.

50.	If my class already extends from some other class what should I do if I want an instance of my class to be thrown as an exception object?
	One can not do anytihng in this scenarion. Because Java does not allow multiple inheritance and does not provide any exception interface as well.
