Hello,
I am using python to go through all the files in a directory and minimize them using chimera. But the problem is I get and error when I try to minimize a file having Br. I have a lot of files in that directory. So is there any way by which I can skip the file that has error and go onto the next file? Any suggestion would br greatly appreciated.
Hi Divya,
You can deal with possible errors using Python's try/except error-handling construct. Something like:
<initial script code>
for <each file>:
<initial loop code>
try:
<code that might produce an error>
except:
<things you want to do if there's an error>
continue
<things you want to do if there's no error>
<final script code>
Check out this part of the Python tutorial about error handling:
