Using the pass statement in an exception block ignores the exception. Exceptions should never be ignored. Instead, the user must add code to notify an exception occurred and attempt to handle it or recover from it.
Non-Compliant Code Examples
a=2b=0try:c=a/bexceptExceptionase:pass# should use a regular statement and not ignore the exception
Compliant Code Examples
a=2b=0try:c=a/bexceptValueErrorase:print(e)pass
