Pattern to avoid nested try catch blocks?

Question

Consider a situation where I have three (or more) ways of performing a calculation, each of which can fail with an exception. In order to attempt each calculation until we f

Answer 1

using System;

namespace Utility
{
    /// 

    /// A helper class for try-catch-related functionality
    /// 
    public static class TryHelper
    {
        /// 

        /// Runs each function in sequence until one throws no exceptions;
        /// if every provided function fails, the exception thrown by
        /// the final one is left unhandled
        /// 
        public static void TryUntilSuccessful( params Action[] functions )
        {
            Exception exception = null;

            foreach( Action function in functions )
            {
                try
                {
                    function();
                    return;
                }
                catch( Exception e )
                {
                    exception   = e;
                }
            }

            throw exception;
        }
    }
}

And use it like so:

using Utility;

...

TryHelper.TryUntilSuccessful(
    () =>
    {
        /* some code */
    },
    () =>
    {
        /* more code */
    },
    calc1,
    calc2,
    calc3,
    () =>
    {
        throw NotImplementedException();
    },
    ...
);
