Catching Unexpected Errors (try-except)

Unfortunately, it’s impossible to predict all the problems that may occur. However, there’s a construction called try-except that we use when we’re working with unpredictable scenarios. You stick the source code in the try block, and if there’s a problem with it, the code in the except block is executed instead.

1try:
2    # code that might have an error in it
3except:
4    # what happens if an error is discovered
