在python中捕获EOL异常

Question

I m trying to execute some code statement dynamically in Python using exec()

The code statement is accepted from the user input.

How do I handle the EOF exception that occurs when the string quotes are not closed?

For eg.

 >> exec('if 5 > 1: print "5 is greater)
    # of course, this will raise an exception, 
    # how do I handle this 

How do I handle such cases, using a try-catch ? What exception should I be looking for here?
