[New-bugs-announce] [issue38774] Statements in try block still executes after raised error

[Torbjørn Wikestad]

New submission from Torbjørn Wikestad <torbjorn.wikestad at gmail.com>:

In a script that runs in a IPython 3.6 console (Spyder IDE, part of a WinPython bundle), a counter increment statement is executed after a function call which raises an ValueError exception in try ... except structure. This does not seem to be the correct interpreter behavior, from the resources that I found, as the expected behaviour is said for execution to jump directly to the except block.
