In my latest attempt at some Python code, I've been tempted to write something in the form of:
try: [...] #doing some internet stuff except IOError: alternate_method_that_doesnt_need_internet() This works when I try it, but I feel vaguely uneasy about putting method calls in exception blocks. So tell me, Brave Pythoneers, is this evil sorcery that I will end up regretting, or is it just plain good ol' Python magic? -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
