Category: Documentation >Group: Python 2.4 >Status: Closed >Resolution: Fixed Priority: 5 Submitted By: Nicolas Grilly (ngrilly) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: 6.9 First sentence is confusing Initial Comment: The first sentence of section 6.9 "The raise statement" in Python Reference Manual is confusing: "If no expressions are present, raise re-raises the last ***expression*** that was active in the current scope." I guess the author means "the last ***exception*** that was active in the current scope". This corresponds to the behavior of Python and also to following sentence in the manual: "If no ***exception*** is active in the current scope, an exception is raised indicating this error." Therefore, should we replace "expression" by "exception" in the first sentence? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- >Comment By: Raymond Hettinger (rhettinger) Date: 2005-04-28 02:14 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=80475 Fixed.
