6,773 PointsDid not understand the test about expecting exeptions
print("A")
try:
result = "test" + 5
print("B")
except ValueError:
print("C")
except TypeError:
print("D")
else:
print("E")
print("F")
OMG. I stared at this for 10 minutes, didn't figure it out. I was already confused by the first line, why is it there, I don't think it's of any impact on the exercise? anyway, moved on: try: analyses the code I know could throw an error, and the error is clear, string + number. The rest of the code I really didn't understand. Thank you in advance to whoever can explain this :)

print("A") #1 print A
try: #2 enter try
result = "test" + 5 #3 raise TypeError adding mixed types
print("B")
except ValueError:
print("C")
except TypeError: #4 jump to TypeError
print("D") # print D
else: # skip else due to error
print("E")
print("F") #5 print F
So, A, D, F
