What is the purpose of the finally block in Python?

The finally block in Python is used to execute code regardless of whether an exception was raised or not.

Can you give me an example of how to use a finally block?

Sure! Here's a simple example:

try:
    x = 1 / 0  # This will raise a ZeroDivisionError
except ZeroDivisionError:
    print('Caught a division by zero!')
finally:
    print('This will always execute.')

What happens if there is no exception?

If there is no exception, the code in the finally block will still execute after the try block.

Is it possible to have a finally block without a try block?

No, the finally block must be associated with a try block in Python.
