How to use the ‘except clause’ with No Exceptions in Python?

If we define except clause with no exceptions, it can handle all types of exceptions. However, neither it’s a good coding practice nor it is recommended.

If you run above code

try:
print 'foo'+'qux'+ 7
except:
print' There is error'

You get the output

There is error

This type of Python try-except block can handle all types of exceptions, but it’ll not be helpful to the programmer to find which type of exception occurred.
