public class ArithmeticException
extends RuntimeException

A Java Card runtime environment-owned instance of ArithmeticException is thrown when an exceptional arithmetic condition has occurred. For example, a "divide by zero" is an exceptional arithmetic condition. Java Card runtime environment-owned instances of exception classes are temporary Java Card runtime environment Entry Point Objects and can be accessed from any applet context. References to these temporary objects cannot be stored in class variables or instance variables or array components. See Runtime Environment Specification, Java Card Platform, Classic Edition , section 6.2.1 for details. This Java Card platform class's functionality is a strict subset of the definition in the Java ^TM Platform Standard Edition (Java SE ^TM ) API Specification .
