  Hi,=20

  What is the different between catching "Exception" and a "except :":=20

  In this particular example, I do not think there is much of a =
difference -- other than in the first case, you can directly investigate =
the error message via the 'e' parameter.

  A more typical example might involve more specific categories of =
exceptions like:

  try:

      <something>

  except (IOError, TypeError), details:

      <handle these types of exceptions>

  except NotImplementedError, details:

      <handle this type of exception>

  except Exception, details:

      <handle all remaining types of exceptions>

  else:

      <continue normal processing>

  try :=20

  except (Exception), e:=20
    pass=20

  and=20



  try:=20
  except :=20
    pass=20



  Thanks=20
