What is a try-finally block in programming?

Can you explain what a try-finally block is in programming?

Sure! A try-finally block is used to ensure that certain code runs regardless of whether an exception occurs.

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

Of course! Here's a simple example in Python:

try:
    # Code that may raise an exception
    risky_operation()
finally:
    # Code that will run no matter what
    cleanup()

What happens if an exception occurs in the try block?

If an exception occurs, the code in the finally block will still execute, allowing for cleanup or resource release.

Are there any limitations to using try-finally?

One limitation is that if an exception is raised in the finally block itself, it can overshadow the original exception.
