Hi Fulvio,
I often use this try except to find out about what type of errors might
happen in my code:
I use it when I really don't know what might happen.
try:
# do something
except:
print "Unexpected error:", sys.exc_info()[0]
continue
once it catches an error, just take a good look at the error message
and you'll be able to extend the try except like this:
try:
# do something
except KeyError:
print "this is a KeyError"
continue
except TypeError:
print "this is a TypeError"
continue
except:
print "Unexpected error:", sys.exc_info()[0]
os.system("pause")
continue
