Program is as follows.

    use Data::Dumper; #using the Dumper function to get the internal s
+tructure 
    
    use Error qw(:try); #specifying to going to use the try block.This
+ is enough to use all the 
    # things in it
    
    try { #defining a try block
        my @array; #declaring an array
    throw Error::Simple "Oops!Array is Empty." unless(@array); #throwi
+ng the exception if the array is an empty
    }
    catch Error::Simple with { #catching the error
    my $error=shift; #getting the Error hash
    print Dumper $error; #printing it in dumper function to know all t
+he details such as filename,line number,the error message,package inf
+ormations,etc.,
    }
    except { #defining an except block
    print "Exception Block\n";
    }
    otherwise { #defining an otherwise block
    print "Otherwise Block\n";
    }

The above program correctly throws the error in try block and it caught in the corresponding catch block.It prints the exception informations. If I commented the catch block statements in the above program,both except block and otherwise block statements are executed.This is what my doubt?
