Programming in Python - L82: Exception handling | try, except, finally & custom errors

Welcome to Lecture 82 of the course "Programming in Python" by Prof. Sudarshan Iyengar. Full Course: https://study.iitm.ac.in/ds/course_pages/BSCS1002.html Video Overview In this lecture we study the essential concept of exception handling in Python. We begin by understanding what exceptions are and how they differ from general errors. Using practical code examples we examine common exceptions such as ZeroDivisionError NameError and FileNotFoundError. We then demonstrate how to handle them gracefully with try except and finally blocks. The lecture also introduces user defined exceptions showing how to create and manage custom error conditions. These techniques are vital for writing robust and reliable Python programs that meet industry standards.
