Error Handling
Domain: Software Engineering
🎯 Motivation
Code that anticipates and handles errors gracefully: try/except, error messages, fallbacks.
📋 Concrete Example
Error handling: try: result = 10 / 0. except ZeroDivisionError: result = ‘Error: cannot divide by zero.’ The program does not crash; it handles the error gracefully. Better user experience.
🔗 Analogy
Error handling is like having a spare tire - if you get a flat (error), you do not abandon the car. You put on the spare (handle the error) and continue. Error handling lets programs survive problems.
