A IndexError occurs if you try access a list item with an index that does not exist:
x = ["apple", "banana", "cherry"]
print(x[5])
The IndexError exception occurs when you use an index on a sequence, like a list or a tuple, and the index is out of range.
You can handle the IndexError in a try...except statement, see the example below.
Handling the IndexError in a try...except statement:
x = ["apple", "banana", "cherry"]
try:
print(x[5])
except IndexError:
print("You are trying to access an item that does not exist!")
except:
print("Something else went wrong")
