 Theory: Arithmetic operations are fundamental to all programming languages and

include addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division. In Python, these operations
are performed using the following symbols:
• Addition: +
• Subtraction: -
• Multiplication: *
• Division: /
 Explanation
• 5 + 3: Adds 5 and 3, resulting in 8.
• 5 - 3: Subtracts 3 from 5, resulting in 2.
• 5 * 3: Multiplies 5 by 3, resulting in 15.
• 5 / 3: Divides 5 by 3, resulting in approximately 1.6667.
Each result is stored in a variable (result_add, result_subtract, result_multiply,
result_divide) and then printed to the screen.

 Objective: Convert temperature from Celsius to Fahrenheit.

 Instructions: Write a Python program to convert temperature from Celsius to Fahrenheit
using the formula: F = (C * 9/5) + 32.
 Theory: Temperature conversion between Celsius and Fahrenheit is a common task. The
formulas for conversion are:
• From Celsius to Fahrenheit: F=95C+32F = \frac{9}{5}C + 32F=59C+32
• From Fahrenheit to Celsius: C=59(F−32)C = \frac{5}{9}(F - 32)C=95(F−32)
 Explanations:
• Assigns the value 25 to the variable celsius.
• fahrenheit = (9/5) * celsius + 32: Converts the Celsius value to Fahrenheit using the formula
and stores it in the fahrenheit variable.
• print(f"{celsius}°C is {fahrenheit}°F"): Prints the result of the conversion.

Similarly, for converting Fahrenheit to Celsius:

• fahrenheit = 77: Assigns the value 77 to the variable fahrenheit.

• celsius = (5/9) * (fahrenheit - 32): Converts the Fahrenheit value to Celsius using the formula
and stores it in the celsius variable.
• print(f"{fahrenheit}°F is {celsius}°C"): Prints the result of the conversion

Experiment 7: Exception Handling Date:

1. Purpose:
The purpose of Exception Handling in Python is to provide a way to manage errors gracefully.
This allows a program to continue running or to handle the error in a specific manner instead of
crashing. Exception handling helps in writing robust and error-resistant code by catching and
handling exceptions that may occur during runtime.
2. Objective:
Practice handling exceptions and errors in Python.
3. Instructions:
Use try-except blocks to catch and handle exceptions. Implement specific exceptions and finally
clauses where needed.
Theory:
Exception handling in Python is done using try, except, else, and finally blocks. The try block
contains the code that may throw an exception. The except block catches and handles the
exception if it occurs. The else block is optional and runs if no exception was raised. Finally, the
finally block is executed regardless of whether an exception occurred or not, typically used for
cleanup actions.
Viva Questions:
 What is an Exception in Python?
 How do you handle exceptions in Python?
 What is the purpose of the finally block in Python?

input is not a number) and ZeroDivisionError (if the user tries to divide by zero).
 Write a function that checks if a number is positive, and raises a ValueError if it’s not.

negative number.
