Python - Custom Exceptions

Aclass ErrorCodeException(Exception): def __init__(self, code, message): self.code = code self.message = message

Bclass ErrorCodeException: def __init__(self, code, message): self.code = code self.message = message

Cclass ErrorCodeException(Exception): def __init__(self, code, message): super().__init__(message) self.code = code

Dclass ErrorCodeException(Exception): pass

Step-by-Step Solution

Solution:

Step 1: Check inheritance and initialization
class ErrorCodeException(Exception): def __init__(self, code, message): super().__init__(message) self.code = code inherits Exception and calls super().__init__(message) to set the message properly.
Step 2: Compare with other options
class ErrorCodeException(Exception): def __init__(self, code, message): self.code = code self.message = message does not call super().__init__, so message may not behave like a normal exception message. class ErrorCodeException: def __init__(self, code, message): self.code = code self.message = message lacks inheritance. class ErrorCodeException(Exception): pass has no code or message storage.
Final Answer:
class ErrorCodeException(Exception): def __init__(self, code, message): super().__init__(message) self.code = code -> Option C
Quick Check:
Inherit Exception and call super() with message = B [OK]

Quick Trick: Call super().__init__(message) to set exception message [OK]
