I Need A Placeholder

I typically use pass for a place holder.

try:
      # Do some code here
      var = 1         # For example
except:
      pass

HTH,

Subject: I Need A Placeholder

I'm trying to build a try/except case, and I want to have the except
function like such:

try:
      # Do some code here
      var = 1         # For example
except:
      #Do nothing here

The only problem is if I leave a comment only in the except block, I
get an error back saying that the except block is not properly
formatted, since it has no content other than a comment.

So if anyone could suggest some code to put there as a placeholder
that would be wonderful.
