Python Program to Catch Multiple Exceptions in One Line

Multiple exceptions can be caught using a tuple . The errors can be passed through a tuple as shown in example below.

Multiple exceptions as a parenthesized tuple

string = input()

try:
    num = int(input())
    print(string+num)
except (TypeError, ValueError) as e:
    print(e)

Input

a
2

Output

can only concatenate str (not "int") to str

Here, we try to catch two types of exceptions TypeError and ValueError, which are passed as inside a tuple in the except block.

In the above example, string and an integer cannot be added, so TypeError is caught.

Let's see another example with a different exception.

Input

a
b

Output

invalid literal for int() with base 10: 'b'

In the above example, the second input should have been an integer, but we passed a string 'b'. Therefore, ValueError is raised.

Note: The error which comes first is caught as an exception in case of multiple exceptions.
