If I don't return anything from a function it returns None. But would it
be better if for the function i.e modify_various_line(f) to atleast catch
or handle exceptions and log it for debugging purpose
Example:
def modify_various_line(f):
""" Try modifiying various line """
try:
f.write('0123456789abcdef')
f.seek(5) # Go to the 6th byte in the file
print f.read(1)
f.seek(-3, 2) # Go to the 3rd byte before the end
print f.read(1)
f.write('END')
except IOError as e:
logging.error("Error: got %s" , % (str(e)))
