g) There is a compiler detected error
h) A call to operator new fails to allocate memory from free store

All are correct except parts a). e) and g)

Part a) is a compiler problem that has nothing to do with the program. Part e) is a logic error that the exception facility cannot help. Part g) is like part a).
Part b) is typical of a severe failure managed by exceptions. Part h) is an examples of part c). Part f) is a example of i).
