Answer 1

When you just want to do a try catch without handling the exception, how do you do it in Python?

This will help you to print what the exception is:( i.e. try catch without handling the exception and print the exception.)

import sys
try:
    doSomething()
except:
    print "Unexpected error:", sys.exc_info()[0]
