Hi all, In http://docs.python.org/tutorial/errors.html#handling-exceptions it says,
| >>> try: | ... raise Exception('spam', 'eggs') Why would I want to use a class for exception? I could simply use raise w/o it? Also the help() says, class Exception(BaseException) But we have used 'spam' and 'eggs'. Why? | ... except Exception as inst: Now what does "as inst" do here? (Is it making an instance, but how? Aren't instances made with this, inst = Klass() ?) Thanks a lot in advance. With warm regards, -Payal -- -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
