Hi, all. All I'm trying to do is to print the error message using the

SyntaxError: invalid syntax
I'm using Python 2.5 on Windows XP.

The name ‘msg’ here is misleading. The except syntax does *not* bind the
target to a message object, it binds the target to an exception object.
It would be clearer to write the above code as:
try:
div

Not entirely true. This feature has been backported to python2.6 as well.

I don't have Python 25 on my computer, but since codepad.org is using Python
2.5.1, I did a quick test:
# input
try:
raise Exception("Mrraa!")
except Exception as msg:
print msg
# output
t.py:3: Warning: 'as' will become a reserved keyword in Python 2.6
Line 3
except Exception as ms
Hi,
"except Exception as variable"
is a new python-3 syntax.
You should use "except Exception, variable" syntax in 2.x series.
