Hi, There appears to an error in the section http://docs.python.org/2/tutorial/errors.html#handling-exceptions of the tutorial. It states: If an exception occurs which does not match the exception named in the except clause, it is passed on to outer try<http://docs.python.org/2/reference/compound_stmts.html#try> statements; if no handler is found, it is an unhandled exception and execution stops with a message as shown above. The problem I see is with the final clause, 'with a message as shown above'. It is not clear to me that there is any such message, what does this refer to ? The hypothetical message that would ensue should the user run the preceding code snippet with a particular input maybe ? Or something else ? As I say, this is far from clear, to me at any rate. Oisín
