How to Catch Multiple Exceptions in Python
In this tutorial, you’ll learn various techniques to catch multiple exceptions with Python. To begin with, you’ll review Python’s exception handling mechanism before diving deeper and learning how to identify what you’ve caught, sometimes ignore what you’ve caught, and even catch lots of exceptions.
Python raises an exception when your code encounters an occasional but not unexpected error. For example, this will occur if you try to read a missing file. Because you’re aware that such exceptions may occur, you should write code to deal with, or handle, them. In contrast, a bug happens when your code does something illogical, like a miscalculation. Bugs should be fixed, not handled. This is why debugging your code is important.
