Try Except

---

• The try block lets you test a block of code for errors.
• The except block lets you handle the error.
• The finally block lets you execute code, regardless of the result of the try- and except blocks.

Example:

try:
  print(x)
except:
  print("Something went wrong")
finally:
  print("The 'try except' is finished")

try:
  print(x)
except NameError:
  print("Variable x is not defined")
except:
  print("Something else went wrong") 

• You can use the else keyword to define a block of code to be executed if no errors were raised.

try:
  print("Hello")
except:
  print("Something went wrong")
else:
  print("Nothing went wrong")
