python - Does "Exception" capture all other "Concrete Exceptions" -

i'm having issues tweepy while running streaming api, question isn't directly related tweepy.

i have been getting multiple exceptions , thought "catch/pass" time being, temporary solution, until find out problem is.

as of now, tweepy has been throwing 5 different errors (incompleteread, protocolerror, unicodedecodeerror, attributeerror, typeerror), , they're resulting filter api not me obtaining data.

the line have in common traceback is:

twitterstream.filter(locations=[-125.22, 31.61, -104.86, 49.0, -104.86, 26.11, -66.94, 49.03]) 

incompleteread , protocolerror related different packages tweepy uses. (unicodedecodeerror, attributeerror, typeerror) concrete exceptions.

my question:

am right assume exception base class can capture (the last 3)? or incorrect?

the documentation exception states

all built-in, non-system-exiting exceptions derived class

so exception base class should able capture those, non-system-exiting (an example of system-exiting exception systemexit). can test if you'd like:

try:     raise attributeerror except exception:     print("we caught exception!") 

that said, blindly capturing exception base class considered bad idea because end capturing exceptions won't want to.
