Answer 1

Second method is better in my opinion because it allows you to trap errors with more accuracy.

Also wrapping your entire code inside one big try/catch block is bad, if your app has some sort of problem and it crashes but since you trapped a big generic execption the chance that you can actualy handle it correctly is lower. You should have spesfic parts inside try catch, like if your reading a file or taking user input. That way you can better handle that exeception
