What is the role of the Runtime signature in exception handling?

In Java, the Runtime signature in the context of exception handling usually refers to information about the types of exceptions that a method can throw and how they are checked at runtime.

Role of Runtime signature in exception handling:

• Defines which exceptions a method can throw (checked exceptions).
• During execution, the JVM checks if there is a handler for the given exception in the call stack.
• If the exception is not handled, it propagates up the stack.

Thus, the method signature with declared exceptions helps the compiler and JVM ensure correct error handling and prevent unexpected program failures.
