AssertionError: Failed at object (analyzing bytecode)

Hi,

I run the sample code from the site as:

@jit
def sum2(two_dimensional_array):    
    result = 0.0
    J, I = two_dimensional_array.shape    
    for i in range(J):
        for j in range(I):
            result += two_dimensional_array[i,j]    
    return result

When I add the try-catch error handling as:

@jit
def sum1(two_dimensional_array):
    result = 0.0
    try:
        J, I = two_dimensional_array.shape    
        for i in range(J):
            for j in range(I):
                result += two_dimensional_array[i,j]    
    except Exception:
        pass
    return result

I got an error as:

Any help?

Thank you!

Try-catch is not supported.

In this case, we can't use it at this time. Very bad for Python programmers!

Exceptions can still be raised and they get propagated all the way up. You can still catch them in the non-jit function.

Our current focus is in high-performance numeric code, such code rarely needs to catch exceptions. On the other hand, the catch semantic can affect the optimizations, disabling auto-vectorization and other aggressive loop transformation.
