How to use try, except, else correctly in Python

Question

So I want to know which is the right way to write try except statements. I\'m new to error handling in Python.

Option 1

try:
    itemCode = items[\"i         


        

Answer 1

Simple - it depends. If you are certain about what exceptions you're going to get, you can stick with 1) and frankly, it is the case 90% of the time. The second way is useful if you know that many code routines can raise the same exception type.
