That's a meaningless request. You can't throw an exception if 
the program cannot run, or even compile.

Once you fix the compilation error, you won't be missing a 
'return'.

And there are no 'RETURN' statements in Java. 

If you read the Java tutorials on the Oracle site, they 
explain the basics of Java syntax and what constitutes 
a legal Java program.
