python catch exception and continue try block

Question

Can I return to executing try-block after exception occurs? (The goal is to write less) For Example:

try:
    do_smth1()
except:
    pass

try:
    do_smth2(         


        

Answer 1

While the other answers and the accepted one are correct and should be followed in real code, just for completeness and humor, you can try the fuckitpy ( https://github.com/ajalt/fuckitpy ) module.

Your code can be changed to the following:

@fuckitpy
def myfunc():
    do_smth1()
    do_smth2()

Then calling myfunc() would call do_smth2() even if there is an exception in do_smth1())

Note: Please do not try it in any real code, it is blasphemy
