> 
>     exception Error
>         Raised by any of the functions when an error is detected."""

> Here's what it looks like:
> 
> ######
> >>> import csv

> <class _csv.Error at 0x81b4f8c>
> ######

> So internally, csv.Error is the thing you've been seeing, but from the
> API, you should try to ignore that particular internal implementation
> detail, and just use csv.Error instead.
