Nested Try Blocks

nTry blocks can be nested, either statically at compile time or dynamically based on the flow of control.

nWhen we throw an exception, the catch blocks associated with the try block containing the throw are searched for a type matching the exception.

nIf no match is found, the catch blocks associated with the statically or dynamically surrounding try block (i.e., a try block entered, but not exited) are searched.

nThis process continues until either a matching catch block is found or there are no more try blocks, in which case the function terminate is called.
