Stock Analysis Python Script:Improve Error Handling for Better User Experience

[Berat-O]

Enhance the error handling mechanism to provide more informative error messages, including the specific type of error encountered. This will make it easier for users to understand what went wrong during the execution of the program. Consider catching specific exceptions and providing context-aware error messages to guide users in troubleshooting issues effectively. Additionally, ensure that error messages are clear, concise, and user-friendly to enhance the overall user experience.

Hi Berat,
I am looking for some good first issues to work on and came across this one! After reviewing the code I would like to help by implementing some better error message handling (and user-friendly responses). I also noticed some documentation could benefit from more information that could be helpful to the user.

Hi,
Improving error messages and enhancing documentation sounds like a great plan. Go ahead and make those changes, and feel free to reach out if you need any help along the way. Looking forward to seeing your improvements!

Hi there

I'm a new contributor and would like to work on this issue to improve error handling and logging.

I've already forked and cloned the repository, and I'm ready to begin working on a solution. Could you please assign this issue to me?

Thanks!

Hi 👋, I’d love to work on improving the error handling!
I went through the code and the issue description I noticed that the script currently uses general exception blocks. I can enhance this by:
Catching specific exceptions like FileNotFoundError, KeyError, and requests.exceptions.RequestException
Providing contextaware messages (e.g., “Invalid stock symbol”, “No internet connection”)
Ensuring errors are logged with clear details (timestamp, type, and message)
This would make it easier for users to understand and troubleshoot issues.
Please let me know if I can go ahead with this approach.
