Must the catch type match?

Short answer. Yes.

What does the program print?

Zero!

Remember

try: code that may fail
throw: send the error
catch: type must match

Dividing by zero can crash your program. How do we stop that? Try holds risky code. N is zero, so we throw it. Catch of int receives it and prints Zero. Try holds risky code. Throw sends the error. The catch type must match.
