try:
    statements # statements that can raise exceptions
except:
    statements # statements that will be executed to handle exceptions
else:
    statements # statements that will be executed if there is no exception

例子:

try:
    age=int(input('Enter your age: '))
except:
    print ('You have entered an invalid value.')
else:
    if age <= 21:
        print('You are not allowed to enter, you are too young.')
    else:
        print('Welcome, you are old enough.')

输出:

>>> 
Enter your age: a
You have entered an invalid value.
>>> RESTART
>>> 
Enter your age: 25
Welcome, you are old enough.
>>> RESTART
>>> 
Enter your age: 13
You are not allowed to enter, you are too young.
>>>

即使你现在想不出它的用途，你可以打赌它一定会有用处的。下面是一个没有想象力的例子:

其他:

a = [1,2,3]
try:
    something = a[2]
except IndexError:
    print("out of bounds")
else:
    print(something)

没有其他的:

try:
    something = a[2]
except IndexError:
    print("out of bounds")

if "something" in locals():
    print(something)

在这里，如果没有抛出错误，则定义了变量something。您可以在try块之外删除它，但如果定义了变量，则需要进行一些混乱的检测。

下面是我喜欢使用这种模式的另一个地方:

 while data in items:
     try
        data = json.loads(data)
     except ValueError as e:
        log error
     else:
        # work on the `data`

也许它的用法是:

#debug = []

def debuglog(text, obj=None):
    " Simple little logger. "
    try:
        debug   # does global exist?
    except NameError:
        pass    # if not, don't even bother displaying
    except:
        print('Unknown cause. Debug debuglog().')
    else:
        # debug does exist.
        # Now test if you want to log this debug message
        # from caller "obj"
        try:
            if obj in debug:
                print(text)     # stdout
        except TypeError:
            print('The global "debug" flag should be an iterable.')
        except:
            print('Unknown cause. Debug debuglog().')

def myfunc():
    debuglog('Made it to myfunc()', myfunc)

debug = [myfunc,]
myfunc()

也许这对你也有帮助。

我发现它非常有用，当你有清理工作要做，即使有例外:

try:
    data = something_that_can_go_wrong()
except Exception as e: # yes, I know that's a bad way to do it...
    handle_exception(e)
else:
    do_stuff(data)
finally:
    clean_up()

PEP 380中有一个很好的try-else示例。基本上，它归结为在算法的不同部分做不同的异常处理。

大概是这样的:

try:
    do_init_stuff()
except:
    handle_init_suff_execption()
else:
    try:
        do_middle_stuff()
    except:
        handle_middle_stuff_exception()

这允许您在异常发生的地方编写异常处理代码。
