Error Handling

Domain: Programming Fundamentals

🎯 Motivation

Things go wrong - files don’t exist, network fails, division by zero. Error handling keeps your program from crashing.

📋 Concrete Example

try: result = 10 / 0 except ZeroDivisionError: print('Cannot divide by zero!') - the program continues instead of crashing.

🔗 Analogy

Wearing a seatbelt - you hope you won’t crash, but if you do, the seatbelt (try/except) protects you from disaster.
