clause that mentions a particular class, that clause also handles any exception
classes derived from that class (but not exception classes from which <em>it</em> is
derived).  Two exception classes that are not related via subclassing are never
equivalent, even if they have the same name.</p>
<p id="index-1">The built-in exceptions listed below can be generated by the interpreter or
built-in functions.  Except where mentioned, they have an &#8220;associated value&#8221;
indicating the detailed cause of the error.  This may be a string or a tuple
containing several items of information (e.g., an error code and a string
explaining the code). The associated value is the second argument to the
<a class="reference internal" href="../reference/simple_stmts.html#raise"><tt class="xref std std-keyword docutils literal"><span class="pre">raise</span></tt></a> statement.  If the exception class is derived from the standard
root class <a class="reference internal" href="#exceptions.BaseException" title="exceptions.BaseException"><tt class="xref py py-exc docutils literal"><span class="pre">BaseException</span></tt></a>, the associated value is present as the
exception instance&#8217;s <tt class="xref py py-attr docutils literal"><span class="pre">args</span></tt> attribute.</p>
<p>User code can raise built-in exceptions.  This can be used to test an exception
handler or to report an error condition &#8220;just like&#8221; the situation in which the
interpreter raises the same exception; but beware that there is nothing to
prevent user code from raising an inappropriate error.</p>
<p>The built-in exception classes can be sub-classed to define new exceptions;
programmers are encouraged to at least derive new exceptions from the
<a class="reference internal" href="#exceptions.Exception" title="exceptions.Exception"><tt class="xref py py-exc docutils literal"><span class="pre">Exception</span></tt></a> class and not <a class="reference internal" href="#exceptions.BaseException" title="exceptions.BaseException"><tt class="xref py py-exc docutils literal"><span class="pre">BaseException</span></tt></a>.

defining exceptions is available in the Python Tutorial under
