60Exceptions in this module are coded as class instances:
61
62<P>
63<dl><dt><b><span class="typelabel">exception</span>&nbsp;<tt id='l2h-4192' xml:id='l2h-4192' class="exception">Error</tt></b></dt>
64<dd>
65The base exception class. <tt class="exception">Error</tt> has a single public data
66member <tt class="member">msg</tt> containing the description of the error.
67</dd></dl>
68
69<P>
70<dl><dt><b><span class="typelabel">exception</span>&nbsp;<tt id='l2h-4193' xml:id='l2h-4193' class="exception">ConversionError</tt></b></dt>
71<dd>
72Class derived from <tt class="exception">Error</tt>. Contains no additional instance
73variables.
74</dd></dl>
75
76<P>
77Here is an example of how you would catch one of these exceptions:
