Real code rarely fails in just one way. A function that reads a product from a catalog can hit a missing key, a malformed number, a closed file, and a network blip, sometimes all in the same week. Python lets you handle each of these on its own terms. This lesson covers how to stack multiple except clauses, how to group several types under one handler, why the order of clauses matters, when (and why not) to use a broad catch-all, how to log what was caught, how to re-raise after handling, and how ExceptionGroup plus except* deal with parallel failures.
