514 PointsWhat would the output be of the following code?
print("A") try: result = 5 + 5 print("B") except ValueError: print("C") except TypeError: print("D") else: print("E") print("F")
I don't understand why A D F is printed out and also i don't understand what reason is there for result = 5 + 5, please somebody clarify it for me.

print("A")
try:
result = 5 + 5
print("B")
except ValueError:
print("C")
except TypeError:
print("D")
else:
print("E")
print("F")
Its print ABEF only because there was no error and 2 integers. So that exceptions lines never ran. result = 5 + 5 its trying to add, like below: result = 5 + "5" you will get TypeError and You will get different output. Hope this help

514 Pointsyes it helped thanks, i played around with it but still kinda don't get what is that result = 5 + 5, I tried to put it there delete it from there put it in different line but still ran the code. is that result = 5 + 5 something like users input?
edit: I just realized I played with it and tried result = 5 + "5" it gave me an TypeError and printed out A D F also tried with result = 'text' + 5 or vise versa and it printed out TypeError so A D F. so kinda starting to understand probably now its just a matter of practice and getting it into content

9,509 Points:) sure. It really nice to listen that, you are playing with code and this is the only way to learn.
