Treehouse Moderator 68,425 PointsIn the case of a raised exception, the else
block of the try
statement does not get executed. So when "test" + 5
is attempted, print("B")
is skipped, execution jumps to TypeError
exception, and the final else
block is skipped.
Post back if you need more help. Good luck!!
