How can you handle exceptions in Python?

In Python, exceptions are handled using try and except blocks. This structure allows you to write code that can gracefully respond to errors that may occur during execution. When you wrap code that might raise an exception in a try block, Python will attempt to execute it.

If an exception is encountered, execution immediately jumps to the corresponding except block, where you can define how to handle that specific exception or any exception in general. This approach not only prevents the program from crashing but also allows developers to provide useful feedback or perform corrective actions.

The other choices do not accurately represent how exception handling is implemented in Python. For example, the term "try and catch" is commonly used in languages like Java or C#, but Python uses "except" instead. Similarly, "raise" is used to explicitly trigger an exception, but it is not used alongside "except" to catch exceptions. The terms "error" and "exception" are not employed together in that context either, as "exception" is the correct terminology in Python. Thus, the choice reflecting correct Python syntax and structure for handling exceptions is indeed the use of try and except blocks.
