Difference between Exceptions and Errors

[kathryn]

I am currently taking the Advanced CF class and we are learning about error handling. Can someone give me a good explanation of what the difference between exceptions and errors?

Specifically, we are learning about CFERROR. You can use an Exception error handler for unhandled exceptions. But unhandled error use the Request error handler.

Any explanation or resource recommendations would be appreciated.
