New submission from Viorel Tabara:
At https://docs.python.org/3.5/tutorial/errors.html#defining-clean-up-actions
when I'm running the "divide('2', '1')" example I get:
File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
instead of the documentation output of:
File "<stdin>", line 1, in ?
The same message is included with the 2.7 tutorial.
To wit:
$ python3

>>> def divide(x, y):
... try:
... result = x / y
... except ZeroDivisionError:
... print('division by zero!')
... else:
... print('result is', result)
... finally:
... print('executing finally clause')
...
>>> divide(2, 1)
result is 2.0
executing finally clause
>>> divide(2, 0)
division by zero!
executing finally clause
>>> divide('2', '1')
executing finally clause

Nice tutorial by the way ;) Thanks!
