The interview started, and the interviewer asked me to show my PAN card. He took a photo of it and, after verification, continued the interview process.

The interview was technical, not an HR round.

He asked about myself (introduction). I gave my basic introduction, he then reviewed my resume and asked about my projects.

Then he asked me to write a program to find the second maximum element of an array. I completed this in VS Code.

Next, he inquired about the languages I know, and I replied, "C, C++, and Python."

He then asked about basic OOPs concepts and exception handling.

After this, he said, "Okay, I'm done on my side. If you have any questions, you can ask." I asked for my feedback. He responded, "You are pretty much what I needed, and your pace of answering is good according to your knowledge. Just brush up your skills."

What is exception handling in any programming language?
