async Task FailAsync()
{
await Task.Delay(500);
throw new Exception("Something went wrong!");
}
async Task MainAsync()
{
try
{
await FailAsync();
}
catch (Exception ex)
{
Console.WriteLine($"Caught: {ex.Message}");
}
}
⚠️ Why Use try/catch with await?
- The exception is thrown where you
awaitthe method. - If you don’t catch it, your app may crash.
💡 Try It!
Write an async method that throws an exception, and handle it with try/catch.
