Explanation:

In the above program, we created a class ExceptionDemo that contains two methods PrintHello() and Main(). The PrintHello() message will print "Hello World" on the console screen.

In the Main() method, we created an object E in the "try" block. Then we assigned the value "null" to the reference E and then call PrintHello() method with a null reference. That's why the NullReferenceException exception gets generated and caught by the "catch"  block that will print the exception message on the console screen.
