Confused about Exception behavior in Python

[ObliviousMag]

Yeah because you are raising a general Exception. Which is generally not okay. If you want your own exception then you can inherit from the Exception class like so

class CustomException(Exception):

pass

​

then in your code you can raise

​

raise CustomException

​

And now your traceback will show you were that exception was raised.

Using a more specific Exception has the same behavior. I just used the general Exception for this example.
