Python Coding challenge - Day 279| What is the output of the following Python Code?

 

Step-by-Step Explanation:

Purpose of try and except:

Python uses try and except blocks to handle exceptions (runtime errors) gracefully.

When code inside the try block raises an exception, the program's execution jumps to the corresponding except block to handle it.

This prevents the program from crashing and allows it to handle errors in a controlled way.

Division by Zero:

x = 5 / 0

Inside the try block, the code attempts to divide 5 by 0.

Division by zero is not allowed in Python, so it raises a ZeroDivisionError exception.

Handling the Exception:

except ZeroDivisionError:

    print("Cannot divide by zero!")

When the ZeroDivisionError is raised, the program execution jumps to the except block.

Inside the except block, a message is printed: "Cannot divide by zero!".

Program Flow:

The program does not crash because the exception is handled.

Once the except block is executed, the program continues (if there are additional statements after this block).

Final Output:

Cannot divide by zero!
