The finally block *always* executes when the try block exits. This ensures
that the finally block is executed even if an unexpected exception occurs.
But finally is useful for more than just exception handling — it allows the
programmer to avoid having cleanup code accidentally bypassed by a return,
continue, or break. Putting cleanup code in a finally block is always a
good practice, even when no exceptions are anticipated.
