8 Python Try Except

1. What is Try Except?

Try Except is used to handle errors in Python.

In simple words:
👉 Python tries to run the code
👉 If an error happens, Python does not crash
👉 Instead, it runs the except code

2. Why Use Try Except?

  • User sees error message

With try-except:

  • Program continues
