How do I make an exception when catching errors in Python?

Question

Aryan Kumar · Answer

Sure, here is how you can make an exception when catching errors in Python:
Python
def divide_numbers(x, y):
  try:
    result = x / y
  except ZeroDivisionError as e:
    # Create an exception
    raise Exception("Division by zero")
result = divide_numbers(10, 0)
In this example, the divide_numbers() function takes two numbers as input and divides them. If the denominator is zero, the
ZeroDivisionError exception is raised. The try/except block catches the exception and creates a new exception called
Exception. The new exception is raised and will be handled by the next
try/except block.
Here is a breakdown of how the try/except block works:
The try keyword indicates the beginning of a block of code that may throw an exception.The except keyword is followed by the name of the exception that you want to catch. In this case, we are catching the
ZeroDivisionError exception.The code in the except block will be executed if the exception is raised. In this case, the code creates a new
Exception exception.The raise keyword is used to raise an exception. In this case, we are raising the new
Exception exception that we created.
