I ask this having more C++ knowledge than sense. There is an adage in the halls of everything Stroustrup that one needs to think about how resource allocation will be unwound if an exception is thrown. This gets watered down to the mantra "Don't throw exceptions from within constructors." Does this carry over to Python? I'm trying to develop a Pythonistic mindset as opposed to carrying over old baggage...
