I want to exception handle 'list index out of range.'

Question

I am using BeautifulSoup and parsing some HTMLs.

For anyone interested in a shorter way:

gotdata = len(dlist)>1 and dlist[1] or 'null'

But for best performance, I suggest using False instead of 'null', then a one line test will suffice:

gotdata = len(dlist)>1 and dlist[1]
