<p class="MsoNormal">Hi,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Today, I had difficulty outfitting my code with error detection and handling, owing primarily to the fact that, in the documentation, there is little indication of what the possible errors, and sub-error codes, can be thrown with each function.
In many circumstances, I had to resort to various tidbits of knowledge around the Web.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I appreciate that, in many cases, the errors thrown are common sense (file doesn’t exist, directory is read only, etc.), however there are a lot of cases where this is not immediately clear, and there is no clear place wherein the common
errors are clearly detailed.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I do not know the state of more recent versions of the documentation, as I was solely working with the 2.7.10 version. That said, fixes with Python 3+ docs aren’t as useful to myself and many others, as I am using version 2.7, and am unable
to switch.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Many thanks,<o:p></o:p></p>
