python
# Triggering and catching Warning
try:
    import warnings; warnings.warn("test warning")
except Warning as e:
    print(f"Caught Warning: {e}")
    print(f"Type: {type(e).__name__}")

Warning is raised when base class for warning categories. Always catch specific exceptions rather than bare except clauses.

Handling Warning

python
# Safe handling pattern
def safe_operation():
    try:
        import warnings; warnings.warn("test warning")
    except Warning:
        print("Operation failed gracefully")
        return None

result = safe_operation()
print(f"Result: {result}")

Wrapping risky operations in try/except blocks prevents your program from crashing.
