I really like this one. It's way more general. I can see a use for IndexError as well (lists don't have the dict.get() method). Also I would prefer not to use "as" this way. In the context of an exception, "as" already binds the exception to a variable so it's confusing. What about: val = name.strip()[4:].upper() except Exception: -1 _______________________________________________ Python-Dev mailing list [email protected] https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-dev Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-dev/archive%40mail-archive.com
