Python exception messages can be captured and printed in different ways as shown in two code examples below. In the first one, we use the message attribute of the exception object.try: a = 7/0 print float(a) except BaseException as e: print e.messageOUTPUTinteger division or modulo by zeroIn case of given ...

We have a scenario in which code in except clause itself raises exception. In given code, we can handle the exception raised by except clause as follows.import sys try: a = john except: try: 4/0 except: print sys.exc_info() We get the following output"C:/Users/TutorialsPoint1/~.py" (<type 'exceptions.ZeroDivisionError'>, ZeroDivisionError('integer division or modulo ...

Yes in given code ‘err’ is an exception object.In python everything is an object. And every object has attributes and methods. So exceptions much like lists, functions, tuples etc are also objects. So exceptions too have attributes like other objects. These attributes can be set and accessed as follows. There ... Read More

If a python code throws an exception, we can catch it and print the type, the error message, traceback and get information like file name and line number in python script where the exception occurred.We can find the type, value, traceback parameters of the errorType gives the type of exception ...

The following link is a  good reference document on python exceptionshttps://docs.python.org/2/library/exceptions.html

IOError ExceptionIt is an error raised when an input/output operation fails, such as the print statement or the open() function when trying to open a file that does not exist. It is also raised for operating system-related errors.If the given code is written in a try block, it raises an ... Read More

ArithmeticError Exception is the base class for all errors that occur for numeric calculations. It is the base class for those built-in exceptions like: OverflowError, ZeroDivisionError, FloatingPointErrorWe can catch the exception in given code as followsimport sys try: 7/0 except ArithmeticError as e: print e print sys.exc_type print 'This is ... Read More

A SyntaxError occurs any time the parser finds source code it does not understand. This can be while importing a module, invoking exec, or calling eval(). Attributes of the exception can be used to find exactly what part of the input text caused the exception.We rewrite the given code to ... Read More

An EOFError is raised when a built-in function like input() or raw_input() do not read any data before encountering the end of their input stream. The file methods like read() return an empty string at the end of the file.The given code is rewritten as follows to catch the EOFError ... Read More

NameErrors are raised when your code refers to a name that does not exist in the current scope. For example, an unqualified variable name.The given code is rewritten as follows to catch the exception and find its type.import sys try: def foo(): print magnolia foo() except NameError as e: print ... Read More

An IndexError is raised when a sequence reference is out of range.The given code is rewritten as follows to catch the exception and find its typeimport sys try: my_list = [3, 7, 9, 4, 6] print my_list[6] except IndexError as e: print e print sys.exc_typeOUTPUTC:/Users/TutorialsPoint1~.py list index out of range ... Read More

When an arithmetic operation exceeds the limits of the variable type, an OverflowError is raised. Long integers allocate more space as values grow, so they end up raising MemoryError. Floating point exception handling is not standardized, however. Regular integers are converted to long values as needed.Given code is rewritten to ... Read More

A ValueError is used when a function receives a value that has the right type but an invalid value.The given code can be rewritten as follows to handle the exception and find its type.import sys try: n = int('magnolia') except Exception as e: print e print sys.exc_typeOUTPUTinvalid literal for int() ... Read More

LookupError Exception is the Base class for errors raised when something can’t be found. The base class for the exceptions that are raised when a key or index used on a mapping or sequence is invalid: IndexError, KeyError.An IndexError is raised when a sequence reference is out of range.The given ...

EnvironmentError is the base class for errors that come from outside of Python (the operating system, filesystem, etc.). EnvironmentError Exception is a subclass of the StandarError class. It is the base class for IOError and OSError exceptions. It is not actually raised unlike its subclass errors like IOError and OSError.Any ... Read More
