I understand the try block you can insert and code to try and see what error comes up, and the error then can be caught by the except block. I am trying to figure out the best way to insert a if / else in the try and except block for the same key error that is present in this code. I was thinking that i could just replace the try and except with If/else or is it possible to just add a if/else in the try and except. Any help on how to insert a if/else into this code for key error would be greatly appreciated. So basically i want to add a if/else code into the try and except block for the same key error.
SomeDict = {'Sarah':20, 'Mark': 'hello', 'Jackie': 'bye'}
try:
result = "" #could i insert something like if result == "" : #for this line?
theKey = raw_input("Enter some key: ")
val = someDict[theKey]
except keyErrorr:
result "hello"
else:
result = result + "" + "done"
print result
One reasonable option is to initialize result = None
, then test if result is None:
.
It's better to use None than the empty string, since someday you might want a dictionary value to be the empty string, plus None is probably clearer to the casual reader of your code.
You could also just skip the try-except, and use if theKey in someDict:
.
you can add another except without a specification what exception it should handle.
try:
# do something
except KeyError:
# do something because of the Keyerror
except:
# do what you need to do if the exception is not a KeyError
someDict = {'Sarah':20, 'Mark': 'hello', 'Jackie': 'bye'} # corrected dict name
result = ""
theKey = raw_input("Enter some key: ")
try: # just try the code where the error could be
val = someDict[theKey]
except KeyError: # corrected exception name and indent level
result = "hello" # corrected syntax
else: # corrected indent level
result = result + "" + "done" # why add "" ?
print result
does this work for you?
