My original statement was that: def foo(): raise Exception defines a function which 1) has no explicit return statement and 2) does not return None. I stand by that statement. There is no possible codepath, no possible calling sequence, no possible execution environment, which will cause that function to return None. That fact that one particular Python implementation happens to produce unreachable bytecode for returning None is meaningless. Would you say that: def baz(): return None print "I got here" is a function which prints "I got here"? -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
