Summary of Changes

Hello @haosenwang1018, I'm Gemini Code Assist¹! I'm currently reviewing this pull request and will post my feedback shortly. In the meantime, here's a summary to help you and other reviewers quickly get up to speed!

This pull request refactors two bare except clauses to explicitly catch Exception. This change improves the robustness and predictability of error handling by ensuring that only application-level exceptions are caught, avoiding the suppression of critical system-exiting signals.

Highlights

• Exception Handling: Replaced two instances of bare except clauses with except Exception to adhere to Python best practices and prevent catching SystemExit, KeyboardInterrupt, and GeneratorExit.

Code Review

This pull request replaces two bare except: clauses with except Exception:. This is a good practice as it prevents catching system-exiting exceptions like SystemExit and KeyboardInterrupt. I've added one suggestion to make the exception handling even more specific in one of the cases, which improves code robustness by only catching expected errors.

[gemini-code-assist]

While except Exception: is an improvement over a bare except:, it's best practice to be as specific as possible with the exceptions being caught. The code in the try block primarily performs dictionary lookups, so the expected exceptions are KeyError or TypeError. Catching these specific exceptions will prevent masking other unexpected errors.
