Error Handling and Exception Management

When writing software, it's important to anticipate and handle errors and exceptions that may occur during program execution. Proper error handling helps to ensure the stability and reliability of software applications.

Error Handling is the practice of identifying, catching, and responding to errors that can occur during program execution. Here are some best practices for error handling:

  1. Use try-except blocks to handle specific exceptions that may occur in your code. This allows you to catch and handle errors gracefully.

    PYTHON
    1def divide(x, y):
    2 try:
    3     result = x / y
    4     print(result)
    5 except ZeroDivisionError as error:
    6     print('Error: Division by zero')
    7 except Exception as error:
    8     print('Error:', error)

divide(10, 2)
