    The throw keyword is used to explicitly throw, or raise, an exception in Java. It is used with an exception type and can be used to create custom error handling. The throws keyword is used in method declarations to indicate what checked exceptions may be thrown by that method. Both throw and throws allow exceptions to be handled or propagated in Java programs.
