A try-catch block is a fundamental error-handling construct in programming that allows developers to handle exceptions gracefully. By encapsulating code that may throw an exception within a 'try' block and providing one or more 'catch' blocks to handle specific exceptions, it ensures that programs can continue running or terminate smoothly without crashing unexpectedly.
