异常¶

try & except 块¶

写代码的时候,出现错误必不可免,即使代码没有问题,也可能遇到别的问题。

看下面这段代码:

  1. import math
  2.  
  3. while True:
  4. text = raw_input('> ')
  5. if text[0] == 'q':
  6. break
  7. x = float(text)
  8. y = math.log10(x)
  9. print "log10({0}) = {1}".format(x, y)

这段代码接收命令行的输入,当输入为数字时,计算它的对数并输出,直到输入值为 q 为止。

乍看没什么问题,然而当我们输入0或者负数时:

In [1]:

  1. import math
  2.  
  3. while True:
  4. text = raw_input('> ')
  5. if text[0] == 'q':
  6. break
  7. x = float(text)
  8. y = math.log10(x)
  9. print "log10({0}) = {1}".format(x, y)
  1. > -1
  1. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
  2. ValueError Traceback (most recent call last)
  3. <ipython-input-1-ceb8cf66641b> in <module>()
  4. 6 break
  5. 7 x = float(text)
  6. ----> 8 y = math.log10(x)
  7. 9 print "log10({0}) = {1}".format(x, y)
  8.  
  9. ValueError: math domain error

log10 函数会报错,因为不能接受非正值。

一旦报错,程序就会停止执行,如果不希望程序停止执行,那么我们可以添加一对 try & except

  1. import math
  2.  
  3. while True:
  4. try:
  5. text = raw_input('> ')
  6. if text[0] == 'q':
  7. break
  8. x = float(text)
  9. y = math.log10(x)
  10. print "log10({0}) = {1}".format(x, y)
  11. except ValueError:
  12. print "the value must be greater than 0"

一旦 try 块中的内容出现了异常,那么 try 块后面的内容会被忽略,Python会寻找 except 里面有没有对应的内容,如果找到,就执行对应的块,没有则抛出这个异常。

在上面的例子中,try 抛出的是 ValueErrorexcept 中有对应的内容,所以这个异常被 except 捕捉到,程序可以继续执行:

In [2]:

  1. import math
  2.  
  3. while True:
  4. try:
  5. text = raw_input('> ')
  6. if text[0] == 'q':
  7. break
  8. x = float(text)
  9. y = math.log10(x)
  10. print "log10({0}) = {1}".format(x, y)
  11. except ValueError:
  12. print "the value must be greater than 0"
  1. > -1
  2. the value must be greater than 0
  3. > 0
  4. the value must be greater than 0
  5. > 1
  6. log10(1.0) = 0.0
  7. > q

捕捉不同的错误类型¶

  1. import math
  2.  
  3. while True:
  4. try:
  5. text = raw_input('> ')
  6. if text[0] == 'q':
  7. break
  8. x = float(text)
  9. y = 1 / math.log10(x)
  10. print "log10({0}) = {1}".format(x, y)
  11. except ValueError:
  12. print "the value must be greater than 0"

假设我们将这里的 y 更改为 1 / math.log10(x),此时输入 1

In [3]:

  1. import math
  2.  
  3. while True:
  4. try:
  5. text = raw_input('> ')
  6. if text[0] == 'q':
  7. break
  8. x = float(text)
  9. y = 1 / math.log10(x)
  10. print "log10({0}) = {1}".format(x, y)
  11. except ValueError:
  12. print "the value must be greater than 0"
  1. > 1
  1. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
  2. ZeroDivisionError Traceback (most recent call last)
  3. <ipython-input-3-7607f1ae6af9> in <module>()
  4. 7 break
  5. 8 x = float(text)
  6. ----> 9 y = 1 / math.log10(x)
  7. 10 print "log10({0}) = {1}".format(x, y)
  8. 11 except ValueError:
  9.  
  10. ZeroDivisionError: float division by zero

因为我们的 except 里面并没有 ZeroDivisionError,所以会抛出这个异常,我们可以通过两种方式解决这个问题:

捕捉所有异常¶

except 的值改成 Exception 类,来捕获所有的异常。

In [4]:

  1. import math
  2.  
  3. while True:
  4. try:
  5. text = raw_input('> ')
  6. if text[0] == 'q':
  7. break
  8. x = float(text)
  9. y = 1 / math.log10(x)
  10. print "1 / log10({0}) = {1}".format(x, y)
  11. except Exception:
  12. print "invalid value"
  1. > 1
  2. invalid value
  3. > 0
  4. invalid value
  5. > -1
  6. invalid value
  7. > 2
  8. 1 / log10(2.0) = 3.32192809489
  9. > q

指定特定值¶

这里,我们把 ZeroDivisionError 加入 except

In [5]:

  1. import math
  2.  
  3. while True:
  4. try:
  5. text = raw_input('> ')
  6. if text[0] == 'q':
  7. break
  8. x = float(text)
  9. y = 1 / math.log10(x)
  10. print "1 / log10({0}) = {1}".format(x, y)
  11. except (ValueError, ZeroDivisionError):
  12. print "invalid value"
  1. > 1
  2. invalid value
  3. > -1
  4. invalid value
  5. > 0
  6. invalid value
  7. > q

或者另加处理:

In [6]:

  1. import math
  2.  
  3. while True:
  4. try:
  5. text = raw_input('> ')
  6. if text[0] == 'q':
  7. break
  8. x = float(text)
  9. y = 1 / math.log10(x)
  10. print "1 / log10({0}) = {1}".format(x, y)
  11. except ValueError:
  12. print "the value must be greater than 0"
  13. except ZeroDivisionError:
  14. print "the value must not be 1"
  1. > 1
  2. the value must not be 1
  3. > -1
  4. the value must be greater than 0
  5. > 0
  6. the value must be greater than 0
  7. > 2
  8. 1 / log10(2.0) = 3.32192809489
  9. > q

事实上,我们还可以将这两种方式结合起来,用 Exception 来捕捉其他的错误:

In [7]:

  1. import math
  2.  
  3. while True:
  4. try:
  5. text = raw_input('> ')
  6. if text[0] == 'q':
  7. break
  8. x = float(text)
  9. y = 1 / math.log10(x)
  10. print "1 / log10({0}) = {1}".format(x, y)
  11. except ValueError:
  12. print "the value must be greater than 0"
  13. except ZeroDivisionError:
  14. print "the value must not be 1"
  15. except Exception:
  16. print "unexpected error"
  1. > 1
  2. the value must not be 1
  3. > -1
  4. the value must be greater than 0
  5. > 0
  6. the value must be greater than 0
  7. > q

得到异常的具体信息¶

在上面的例子中,当我们输入不能转换为浮点数的字符串时,它输出的是 the value must be greater than 0,这并没有反映出实际情况。

In [8]:

  1. float('a')
  1. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
  2. ValueError Traceback (most recent call last)
  3. <ipython-input-8-99859da4e72c> in <module>()
  4. ----> 1 float('a')
  5.  
  6. ValueError: could not convert string to float: a

为了得到异常的具体信息,我们将这个 ValueError 具现化:

In [9]:

  1. import math
  2.  
  3. while True:
  4. try:
  5. text = raw_input('> ')
  6. if text[0] == 'q':
  7. break
  8. x = float(text)
  9. y = 1 / math.log10(x)
  10. print "1 / log10({0}) = {1}".format(x, y)
  11. except ValueError as exc:
  12. if exc.message == "math domain error":
  13. print "the value must be greater than 0"
  14. else:
  15. print "could not convert '%s' to float" % text
  16. except ZeroDivisionError:
  17. print "the value must not be 1"
  18. except Exception as exc:
  19. print "unexpected error:", exc.message
  1. > 1
  2. the value must not be 1
  3. > -1
  4. the value must be greater than 0
  5. > aa
  6. could not convert 'aa' to float
  7. > q

同时,我们也将捕获的其他异常的信息显示出来。

这里,exc.message 显示的内容是异常对应的说明,例如

  1. ValueError: could not convert string to float: a

对应的 message

  1. could not convert string to float: a

当我们使用 except Exception 时,会捕获所有的 Exception 和它派生出来的子类,但不是所有的异常都是从 Exception 类派生出来的,可能会出现一些不能捕获的情况,因此,更加一般的做法是使用这样的形式:

  1. try:
  2. pass
  3. except:
  4. pass

这样不指定异常的类型会捕获所有的异常,但是这样的形式并不推荐。

自定义异常¶

异常是标准库中的类,这意味着我们可以自定义异常类:

In [10]:

  1. class CommandError(ValueError):
  2. pass

这里我们定义了一个继承自 ValueError 的异常类,异常类一般接收一个字符串作为输入,并把这个字符串当作异常信息,例如:

In [11]:

  1. valid_commands = {'start', 'stop', 'pause'}
  2.  
  3. while True:
  4. command = raw_input('> ')
  5. if command.lower() not in valid_commands:
  6. raise CommandError('Invalid commmand: %s' % command)
  1. > bad command
  1. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
  2. CommandError Traceback (most recent call last)
  3. <ipython-input-11-0e1f81a1136d> in <module>()
  4. 4 command = raw_input('> ')
  5. 5 if command.lower() not in valid_commands:
  6. ----> 6 raise CommandError('Invalid commmand: %s' % command)
  7.  
  8. CommandError: Invalid commmand: bad command

我们使用 raise 关键词来抛出异常。

我们可以使用 try/except 块来捕捉这个异常:

  1. valid_commands = {'start', 'stop', 'pause'}
  2.  
  3. while True:
  4. command = raw_input('> ')
  5. try:
  6. if command.lower() not in valid_commands:
  7. raise CommandError('Invalid commmand: %s' % command)
  8. except CommandError:
  9. print 'Bad command string: "%s"' % command

由于 CommandError 继承自 ValueError,我们也可以使用 except ValueError 来捕获这个异常。

finally¶

try/catch 块还有一个可选的关键词 finally。

不管 try 块有没有异常, finally 块的内容总是会被执行,而且会在抛出异常前执行,因此可以用来作为安全保证,比如确保打开的文件被关闭。。

In [12]:

  1. try:
  2. print 1
  3. finally:
  4. print 'finally was called.'
  1. 1
  2. finally was called.

在抛出异常前执行:

In [13]:

  1. try:
  2. print 1 / 0
  3. finally:
  4. print 'finally was called.'
  1. finally was called.
  1. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
  2. ZeroDivisionError Traceback (most recent call last)
  3. <ipython-input-13-87ecdf8b9265> in <module>()
  4. 1 try:
  5. ----> 2 print 1 / 0
  6. 3 finally:
  7. 4 print 'finally was called.'
  8.  
  9. ZeroDivisionError: integer division or modulo by zero

如果异常被捕获了,在最后执行:

In [14]:

  1. try:
  2. print 1 / 0
  3. except ZeroDivisionError:
  4. print 'divide by 0.'
  5. finally:
  6. print 'finally was called.'
  1. divide by 0.
  2. finally was called.
