During code review, you notice that a colleague has used a generic except block without specifying any exception. What potential issues might this lead to?
- Better handling of unexpected exceptions that may not be known at the time of coding.
- Improved code readability and maintainability as it catches all exceptions.
- Increased code efficiency and performance since exceptions are handled generically.
- Precise identification of exceptions becomes difficult, making debugging and error resolution challenging.
Using a generic except block without specifying exceptions can lead to difficulties in debugging and error resolution. It makes it unclear which exceptions are being caught and may mask unexpected issues, making it challenging to maintain and troubleshoot the code.
