I thought ex.printStackTrace() was the only way to debug!

I vaguely recall that ex.printStackTrace() is used for debugging, so we definitely want to avoid that. C seems like the best choice, but I hope I'm right!

I'm a bit confused about the options, but I don't think A or D are valid methods. I might go with C as well.

I feel like we practiced a similar question in class, and I think the right answer is C) ex.getMessage().

I think I remember that using ex.getMessage() is a way to get the error message without the stack trace, but I'm not completely sure.
