Conditional Statements

What is the purpose of the finally block in a try-except-finally statement?
To handle exceptions
To define the main body of the code
To always execute code, whether an exception occurs or not
To terminate the program
Answer: Option
Explanation:

The finally block is used to define code that will be executed no matter what, whether an exception occurs in the try block or not.

This block is typically used for cleanup operations, such as closing files or releasing resources, that should be executed regardless of whether an exception was raised within the try block or not.

It ensures that certain actions are performed even if an exception occurs and is caught by an except block, or if no exception occurs at all.
