Basic Exception Handling
● Problem: Write a Python program that takes an integer input from the user and prints its
reciprocal. Use exception handling to catch a ZeroDivisionError and print an appropriate
message if the user tries to enter zero.
2. File Handling Error
● Problem: Write a Python program to open a file named user_data.txt and read its
contents. Use exception handling to manage a FileNotFoundError if the file does not exist
and print a custom error message.
3. Custom Exception
● Problem: Define a custom exception called NegativeNumberError. Write a Python program
that asks the user for a number and raises this exception if the number is negative,
catching the exception and displaying an appropriate message.
4. Multiple Exceptions
● Problem: Write a Python program that asks the user to input a number and calculates the
square root of the number. Your program should handle exceptions for at least two types
of errors: ValueError for non-numeric inputs and TypeError if a wrong data type is passed
somehow, despite the input.
5. Using finally
● Problem: Write a Python program that attempts to write data to a file and uses a finally
block to ensure that the file stream is closed, regardless of whether an exception occurs.
6. Nested Exception Handling
● Problem: Create a Python program with nested try statements: the outer block should
handle file operations, and the inner block should handle arithmetic operations. Use the
except blocks appropriately to catch and print specific error messages.
7. Raising an Exception with assert
● Problem: Write a Python function that takes two integers and divides them. Use the assert
statement to ensure that the denominator is not zero before performing the division. Raise
an AssertionError with an appropriate message if the condition fails.
8. Handling Multiple Specific Exceptions
● Problem: Write a Python program that prompts the user to enter an integer and then tries
to convert this input into an integer. Catch specific exceptions like ValueError if the input is
not an integer and a general exception to catch other unforeseen errors.
9. Custom Handling for Common Errors
● Problem: Develop a Python program that accepts a list of numbers from the user and
prints the reciprocal of each. Use exception handling to specifically catch and handle the
cases of TypeError (if the user enters non-numeric types) and ZeroDivisionError (if the user
enters zero).
1. try:
number = int(input("Enter an integer: "))
reciprocal = 1 / number
print(f"The reciprocal of {number} is {reciprocal}")
except ZeroDivisionError:
print("Error: Cannot divide by zero.")
except ValueError:
print("Error: Invalid input, please enter an integer.")
OUTPUT
Enter an integer: 5
The reciprocal of 5 is 0.2
Enter an integer: 0
Error: Cannot divide by zero.
2. try:
with open("user_data.txt", "r") as file:
data = file.read()
print("File contents:")
print(data)
except FileNotFoundError:
print("Error: File 'user_data.txt' not found.")
OUTPUT
Assuming user_data.txt does not exist:
Error: The file 'user_data.txt' was not found.
If the file exists with content "Hello, World!":
File contents:
Hello, World!
3. class NegativeNumberError(Exception):
"""Custom exception for handling negative numbers."""
pass
try:
number = int(input("Enter a number: "))
if number < 0:
raise NegativeNumberError("Negative numbers are not allowed.")
print(f"You entered: {number}")
except NegativeNumberError as e:
print(f"Error: {e}")
except ValueError:
print("Error: Invalid input, please enter a number.")
OUTPUT
Enter a positive number: -3
Negative numbers are not allowed.
Enter a positive number: 10
You entered 10
4. import math
try:
number = float(input("Enter a number: "))
square_root = math.sqrt(number)
print(f"The square root of {number} is {square_root}")
except ValueError:
print("Error: Please enter a numeric value.")
except TypeError:
print("Error: Incorrect data type encountered.")
OUTPUT
Enter a number to find its square root: 16
The square root of 16.0 is 4.0
Enter a number to find its square root: abc
Error: Please enter a numeric value.
5. try:
file = open("output.txt", "w")
file.write("This is a test line.")
print("Data written to file successfully.")
except IOError:
print("Error: Unable to write to file.")
finally:
file.close()
print("File closed.")
OUTPUT
Data written to file.
File closed.
6. try:
file = open("data.txt", "r")
try:
number = int(file.readline())
result = 10 / number
print(f"Result of division: {result}")
except ZeroDivisionError:
print("Error: Division by zero is not allowed.")
except ValueError:
print("Error: Could not convert data to an integer.")
finally:
file.close()
print("Inner file handling block complete.")
except FileNotFoundError:
print("Error: The file 'data.txt' was not found.")
OUTPUT
Assuming numbers.txt does not exist:
Error: The file 'numbers.txt' was not found.
If numbers.txt contains 10 and 0:
Error: Division by zero.
If numbers.txt contains 10 and two:
Error: Invalid number format.
7. try:
file = open("data.txt", "r")
try:
number = int(file.readline())
result = 10 / number
print(f"Result of division: {result}")
except ZeroDivisionError:
print("Error: Division by zero is not allowed.")
except ValueError:
print("Error: Could not convert data to an integer.")
finally:
file.close()
print("Inner file handling block complete.")
except FileNotFoundError:
print("Error: The file 'data.txt' was not found.")
OUTPUT
Enter numerator: 10
Enter denominator: 2
Result: 5.0
Enter numerator: 10
Enter denominator: 0
Error: Denominator cannot be zero.
8. try:
number = int(input("Enter an integer: "))
print(f"You entered {number}")
except ValueError:
print("Error: That's not a valid integer.")
except Exception as e:
print("An unexpected error occurred:", e)
Enter an integer: 42
You entered 42
OUTPUT
Enter an integer: hello
Error: That's not a valid integer.
9. try:
numbers = input("Enter numbers separated by spaces: ").split()
for num in numbers:
try:
reciprocal = 1 / float(num)
print(f"The reciprocal of {num} is {reciprocal}")
except ZeroDivisionError:
print(f"Error: Cannot take reciprocal of zero ({num}).")
except ValueError:
print(f"Error: '{num}' is not a number.")
except Exception as e:
print("An unexpected error occurred:", e)
OUTPUT
Enter numbers separated by spaces: 4 5 0 abc
The reciprocal of 4 is 0.25
The reciprocal of 5 is 0.2
Error: Cannot take reciprocal of zero (0).
Error: 'abc' is not a number.
