Exceptions
Part 1: Preparation
- Create a new program called lab9_1.py, and copy this code to the new Idle window.
# lab9_1.py # Your name here # getInput: returns an integer larger # than 0. Expected to be robust def getInput(): while True: x = int( input( "Enter an integer greater than 0: " ) ) if x <= 0: print( "Invalid entry. Try again!" ) else: return x def main(): num = getInput() print( "You have entered", num ) main()
- Test it with numbers such as -3, -10, 0, 5. Verify that the input function works well when you enter numbers.
- Test your program again, and this time enter expressions such as "6.3", or "hello" (without the quotes).
- Make a note of the Error reported by Python:
- Modify your function and add the highlighted code below by hand. This code will catch the ValueError exception.
# getInput: returns an integer larger # than 0. Catches Value errors def getInput(): # repeat forever... while True: # try to get an int try: x = int( input( "Enter an integer greater than 0: " ) ) except ValueError: # the user must have entered something other than an int print( "Invalid entry. Not an integer. Try again!" ) continue # No errors caught. See if the number is negative if x <= 0: print( "You entered a negative number. Try again!" ) else: # finally, we can return x as it is an int that is >0 return x
- Run your program and try different invalid inputs, such as strings or floats. You can also try just pressing the Return key, indicating that you are not providing anything to the input function. Verify that your program catches all these invalid entries and does not crash.
Review Class Example
- Below is an example we saw in class, and that is taken from Zelle. It illustrates how we can guard some code against several types of errors. Review it. You will need to follow this example for the next set of exercises.
def ZelleExample(): import math print( "solution to quadratic equation" ) try: a, b, c = eval( input( "enter 3 coefficients (a,b,c) " ) ) disc = math.sqrt( b*b - 4*a*c ) root1 = (-b + disc )/ (2*a) root2 = (+b + disc )/ (2*a) print( "solutions: ", root1, root2 ) except NameError: print( "You didn't enter 3 numbers" ) except TypeError: print( "Your inputs were not all numbers" ) except SyntaxError: print( "Forgot commas between the numbers?" ) except ValueError: print( "No real roots, negative discriminant" ) except: print( "Something went wrong..." )
Part 2: Exercise
- Create a new program called lab9_2.py with the code below:
def example1(): for i in range( 3 ): x = int( input( "enter an integer: " ) ) y = int( input( "enter another integer: " ) ) print( x, '/', y, '=', x/y ) def example2( L ): print( "\n\nExample 2" ) sum = 0 for i in range( len( L ) ): sum += L[i] print( "sum of items in ", L, "=", sum ) def printUpperFile( fileName ): file = open( fileName, "r" ) for line in file: print( line.upper() ) file.close() def createTextFile( fileName ): file = open( fileName, "w" ) file.write( "Welcome\nto\nCSC111\nIntroduction\nto\nComp.\nSci.\n" ) file.close() def main(): # create a text file for use later... createTextFile( "csc111.txt" ) # test first function example1() # test second function L = [ 10, 3, 5, 6, 9, 3 ] example2( L ) #example2( [ 10, 3, 5, 6, "NA", 3 ] ) # test third function fileName = input( "Enter name of file to display (type csc111.txt): " ) printUpperFile( fileName ) main()
- The program above has many flaws; it is not very robust. We can easily make it crash.
- Observe each function. Run your program a few times.
- Figure out how to make each function crash
- Go ahead and start forcing the first function to crash. Register the XXXXError that is generated. For example, if the output of the crash looks like this:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/Users/thiebaut/Desktop/except0.py", line 29, in <module>
main()
File "/Users/thiebaut/Desktop/except0.py", line 27, in main
example3( [ 10, 3, 5, 6 ] )
File "/Users/thiebaut/Desktop/except0.py", line 18, in example3
sum = sum + L[i]
IndexError: list index out of range
- what you are interested in is IndexError. This is the exception you want to guard your code against.
try: ........ ........ except IndexError: .........
- Add the try/except statement inside the function, and verify that your function is now more robust and does not crash on the same input that made it crash before.
- Repeat the same process for the other functions.
Classes and Objects
Cats
Below is the program we saw in class, where we create a Cat class, where each cat is defined by a name, a breed, whether it is vaccinated or not, and and age.
# cats1.py # D. Thiebaut # Program for Week #9 # Define a Cat class, and # use it to create a collection of # cats. class Cat: """a class that implements a cat and its information. Name, breed, vaccinated, tattooed, and age.""" def __init__( self, na, brd, vacc, ag ): """constructor. Builds a cat with all its information""" self.name = na self.breed = brd self.vaccinated = vacc self.age = ag def isVaccinated( self ): """returns True if cat is vaccinated, False otherwise""" return self.vaccinated def getAge( self ): """returns cat's age""" return self.age def getName( self ): """return name of cat""" return self.name def __str__( self ): """default string representation of cat""" vacc = "vaccinated" if not self.vaccinated: vacc = "not vaccinated" return "{0:20}:==> {1:1}, {2:1}, {3:1} yrs old".format( self.name, self.breed, vacc, self.age ) def main(): """ main program. Creates a list of cats and displays groups sharing the same property. Minou, 3, vac, stray Max, 1, not-vac, Burmese Gizmo, 2, vac, Bengal Garfield, 4, not-vac, Orange Tabby """ cats = [] cat = Cat( "Minou", "stray", True, 3 ) cats.append( cat ) cats.append( Cat( "Max", "Burmese", False, 1 ) ) cats.append( Cat( "Gizmo", "Bengal", True, 2 ) ) cats.append( Cat( "Garfield", "Orange Tabby", False, 4 ) ) # print the list of all the cats print( "\nComplete List:" ) for cat in cats: print( cat ) if __name__=="__main__": main()
- Recreate this code in a program called Lab9_2.py
- Run it.
- Add a loop to your main program that outputs only the cats that are not vaccinated, and only those.
Challenge #0: getBreed() method |
- Add a new method to your Cat class that returns the breed of a cat. You may want to call it getBreed(). Add a new loop to your main program, such that it uses the new method on each cat and prints only the stray cats.
- Add another loop to your main function, once more, and make it output the non-vaccinated cats that are 2 or older.
Challenge #1: Tattooed Cats |
- Assume that we now want to keep track of whether cats are tattooed or not. A tattoo is a good way to mark cats so that they can be easily identified if lost.
- Add a new boolean field to the class for the tattooed status. True will mean tattooed, False, not tattooed.
- Modify the constructor so that we can pass the tattooed status along with all the other information
- Add a method to Cat, called isTattooed(), that will allow one to test if a cat is tattooed or not.
- Modify your main program so that the tattoo status is included when each cat object is created. You may want to use this new list of cats:
Minou, 3, vaccinated, tattooed, stray Max, 1, not vaccinated, tattooed, Burmese Gizmo, 2, vaccinated, tattooed, Bengal Garfield, 4, not vaccinated, not tattooed, Orange Tabby
- Modify the __str__() method so that it includes the tattoo information in the returned string.
- Run your main program again. It should output the same information as before, but this time the tattoo information will also appear when a cat is listed.
- Add a new section to your main program that will output all the cats that are not tattooed.
Challenge #2: Vaccinated and Tattooed Cats |
- Make the main program display all the cats that are vaccinated and tattooed.
Challenge #3: Reading the Cat information from a CSV file |
- Play with the program below:
# Lab9CatsCSV.py # D. Thiebaut # Seed for a program that reads cat data from # a CSV file. def createCatCSV( fileName ): file = open( fileName, "w" ) file.write( """Minou, 3, vaccinated, tattooed, stray Max, 1, not vaccinated, tattooed, Burmese Gizmo, 2, vaccinated, tattooed, Bengal Garfield, 4, not vaccinated, not tattooed, Orange Tabby Silky, 3, vaccinated, tattooed, Siemese Winston, 1, not vaccinated, not tattooed, stray\n""" ) file.close() def main(): fileName = "cats.csv" createCatCSV( fileName ) # open a csv file file = open( fileName, "r" ) # process each line of the file for line in file: # split the line at the commas words = line.strip().split( "," ) # skip lines that do not have 5 fields if len( words ) != 5: continue # print the fields for i in range( len( words ) ): print( "words[",i,"]=", words[i].strip(), end=", " ) print() if __name__=="__main__": main()
- Merge this program and the one you wrote for Challenge #2, and make your program read the cats from a CSV file. It means your program must
- extract each cat from a line of the file,
- transform the string "vaccinated" in True, and "not vaccinated" in False (it's simpler than you think!)
- transform the string "tattooed" in True, and "not tattooed" in False (same comment),
- transform the string containing the age into an int,
- and store all this information into a Cat object. All the cats should be added to a list.
- Verify that the program outputs the correct lists of cats (vaccinated, 2 and older, vaccinated and tattooed, etc.)
