 What is Exception Handling?
• • Definition of exceptions
• • Importance of exception handling
• • Common scenarios where exceptions occur
Common String-Related Exceptions
• • ValueError
• • TypeError
• • IndexError
• • KeyError
 The Try-Except Block
• Syntax of try-except:
• ```
• try:
• # code that may cause an exception
• except ExceptionType:
• # code that runs if the exception occurs
• ```
 Handling ValueError
• Example of ValueError with strings:
• ```
• try:
• int("abc")
• except ValueError as e:
• print(f"ValueError: {e}")
• ```
 Handling TypeError
• Example of TypeError with strings:
• ```
• try:
• "abc" + 123
• except TypeError as e:
• print(f"TypeError: {e}")
• ```
 Handling IndexError
• Example of IndexError with strings:
• ```
• try:
• s = "abc"
• print(s[5])
• except IndexError as e:
• print(f"IndexError: {e}")
• ```
 Handling KeyError
• Example of KeyError with strings in a
dictionary:
• ```
• try:
• d = {"key1": "value1"}
• print(d["key2"])
• except KeyError as e:
• print(f"KeyError: {e}")
• ```
 Using Finally Block
• Explanation of the finally block:
• ```
• try:
• # code that may cause an exception
• except ExceptionType:
• # code that runs if the exception occurs
• finally:
• # code that runs no matter what
• ```
 Raising Exceptions
• How to raise an exception:
• ```
• if not isinstance(value, str):
• raise TypeError("Value must be a string")
• ```
 Custom Exceptions
• Creating a custom exception:
• ```
• class MyCustomError(Exception):
• pass

• try:
• raise MyCustomError("An error occurred")
• except MyCustomError as e:
• print(f"MyCustomError: {e}")
