try:
s = input('Enter something -->')
if len(s) < 3:
raise ShortInputException(len(s), 3)

except EOFError:
print('\nWhy did you do an EOF on me?')
except ShortInputException(x):
print('ShortInputException: The input was of length %d, \
was expecting at least %d' % (x.length, x.atleast))
else:
print('No exception was raised.')

说句实话,python的exception机制不喜欢

import   traceback

try:
                1/0
except   Exception,   e:
                exstr   =   traceback.format_exc()
                print   exstr
