What are the causes of EOFException in Java?

In Java, an EOFException (End of File Exception) is an exception that occurs when reaching the end of a file while reading data. It occurs in the following situations:

1. When reading a text file, if the reader has reached the end of the file and continues to read, an EOFException will be thrown.
2. When reading a binary file, if the reader has reached the end of the file and continues to read, an EOFException will be thrown.
3. When using the read method in the DataInputStream class to read primitive type data, an EOFException exception will be thrown if the reader has reached the end of the file and continues to read the file.
4. When using the readObject method of the ObjectInputStream class to read an object, if the reader has reached the end of the file, an EOFException will be thrown when attempting to continue reading the file.

It is important to note that EOFException is typically used when reading files and may not be suitable for other situations, such as reading data from an input stream.
