sys.exc_info() returns three items: (exception type, exception value, traceback)
https://docs.python.org/2/library/sys.html#sys.exc_info https://docs.python.org/3/library/sys.html#sys.exc_info and may be used something like this example: try: something except: exc_type, exc, tb = sys.exc_info() print(traceback.extract_tb(tb)) raise Why does it return the exception type separately from the exception, when the type can be derived by calling `type(exc)`? -- Steve -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
