(NumberFormatException) Listing 1, Calculator.java, is a simple commandline calculator. Note that the program terminates if any operand is nonnumeric. Write a program with an exception handler that deals with nonnumeric operands; then write another program without using an exception handler to achieve the same objective. Your program should display a message that informs the user of the wrong operand type before exiting (see Figure 1).
FIGURE 1 The program performs arithmetic operations and detects input errors.

LISTING 1 Calculator.java
1 public class Calculator {
2 /** Main method */
3 public static void main(String[] args) {
4 // Check number of strings passed

7 "Usage: java Calculator operand1 operator operand2");
8 System.exit(0);

11 // The result of the operation

15 switch (args[1].charAt(0)) {
16 case '+': result = Integer.parseInt(args[0]) +
17 Integer.parseInt(args[2]);
18 break;

20 Integer.parseInt(args[2]);
21 break;
22 case '.': result = Integer.parseInt(args[0]) *

26 Integer.parseInt(args[2]);

31 + " = " + result);
