Assertion

Question

What's the difference between assertion & except in python?

Answer 1

syntax :
assert condition
eg :
assert 5>2
## all fine no output
assert 5<2
## Assertion Error

so...
assert True is ok...
assert False is Assertion error...

except is not alone..
its try-except-(often finally) combo..

suppose...
n is a string...
u wanna do smthing if n is a int..
so u cant check it with if...
## actually u can but its bit annoying and not ideal...
so u do....this

try :
n=int(n)
except :
print("sry n needs to be an integer")

if n is a string....int(n) will give Value error..
but within try statement...
and it will jump to except statement and prints that thing.

try this code...

n="solo"
n=int(n)
## see which error compiler gets##
(valueerror)
