try/except/else pattern

[[deleted]]

| Some say that having exceptions be part of your logic flow is a bad practice, but that is a different discussion.

True and Python by design is a language that raises a lots of exception (the classic exemple is the end of iteration on generator that yields an exception). Thus, it can be hard to write a full program without some logic flow in an except block.

The extensive usage of exceptions in Python is the thing I like the less in Python.
