  - ### NoSuchAlgorithmException

    public NoSuchAlgorithmException()
    Constructs a `NoSuchAlgorithmException` with no detail message. A detail message is a `String` that describes this particular exception.

  - ### NoSuchAlgorithmException

    public NoSuchAlgorithmException(String msg)
    Constructs a `NoSuchAlgorithmException` with the specified detail message. A detail message is a `String` that describes this particular exception, which may, for example, specify which algorithm is not available.
    Parameters:
      `msg` - the detail message.

  - ### NoSuchAlgorithmException

    public NoSuchAlgorithmException(String message, Throwable cause)
    Creates a `NoSuchAlgorithmException` with the specified detail message and cause.
    Parameters:
      `message` - the detail message (which is saved for later retrieval by the `Throwable.getMessage()` method).
      `cause` - the cause (which is saved for later retrieval by the `Throwable.getCause()` method). (A `null` value is permitted, and indicates that the cause is nonexistent or unknown.)

  - ### NoSuchAlgorithmException

    public NoSuchAlgorithmException(Throwable cause)
    Creates a `NoSuchAlgorithmException` with the specified cause and a detail message of `(cause==null ? null : cause.toString())` (which typically contains the class and detail message of `cause`).
    Parameters:
      `cause` - the cause (which is saved for later retrieval by the `Throwable.getCause()` method). (A `null` value is permitted, and indicates that the cause is nonexistent or unknown.)
