I disagree, I think SecurityException should not be caught as it may compromise system security.

Definitely not A. EOFException. That's a common one you'd want to handle in file-reading code.

I agree with Jules, EOFException should not be caught because it indicates end of file.

Hmm, my gut says B. SecurityException. That's a checked exception, so you should let the caller handle it.

No, NullPointerException should not be caught either. It's a runtime exception.

C'mon, everyone knows you should never try to catch NullPointerException. That's just asking for trouble!

I think the answer should be D. NullPointerException. That's a runtime exception, not something you should catch explicitly.
