Exception Mcqs

Exception handling in Python is used to gracefully handle errors and prevent program crashes. The try and except keywords are used to catch exceptions, with except specifying the exception type. Code that might cause an exception is placed in the try block, with the except block containing the exception handling code. The finally block is always executed regardless of whether an exception occurred or not.

1.

try:

print("Hello")

raise ValueError("Custom error")

except ValueError as e:

print(e)

finally:

print("World")

Output:

Hello

Custom error

World
**Explanation:** The code prints "Hello", raises a ValueError with a custom message, catches the
ValueError in the except block, prints the error message, and then executes the finally block which
prints "World".

2. try:

num = 10 / 0

print(num)

except ZeroDivisionError:

print("Division by zero!")

Output:

Division by zero!

Explanation: The code attempts to divide by zero, which raises a ZeroDivisionError. This error is
caught in the except block and "Division by zero!" is printed.

3.

try:

num = int("ten")

print(num)

except ValueError:

print("Conversion error!")

finally:

print("End of program")

Output:

Conversion error!

End of program

Explanation: The code attempts to convert the string "ten" to an integer, which raises a ValueError.
This error is caught in the except block and "Conversion error!" is printed. The finally block is always
executed, printing "End of program".

4.

try:
raise Exception("An exception occurred!")

except ValueError:

print("Caught a ValueError")

except Exception as e:

print(e)

Output:

An exception occurred!

Explanation:The code raises an Exception with a custom message. Since there is no specific handler
for Exception, it goes to the general except block, printing the exception message.

5. Question:

try:

with open("nonexistent_file.txt") as f:

content = f.read()

except FileNotFoundError:

print("File not found!")

Predicted Output:

File not found!

Explanation: The code tries to open a file that doesn't exist, which raises a FileNotFoundError. This
error is caught in the except block and "File not found!" is printed.
