Python - Custom Exceptions

You need a custom exception ValidationError that stores both an error message and an error code. Which implementation is best?

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

Bclass ValidationError(Exception): def __init__(self, message, code): super().__init__(message) self.code = code

Cclass ValidationError: def __init__(self, message, code): self.message = message self.code = code

Ddef ValidationError(message, code): self.message = message self.code = code

Step-by-Step Solution

Solution:

Step 1: Inherit from Exception
Custom exceptions must inherit from Exception for proper behavior.
Step 2: Initialize base Exception
Calling super().__init__(message) ensures the message is handled correctly by the base class.
Step 3: Store additional attributes
Assigning self.code stores the error code for later use.
Final Answer:
class ValidationError(Exception): def __init__(self, message, code): super().__init__(message) self.code = code correctly implements all requirements.
Quick Check:
Use super() to initialize Exception with message [OK]

Quick Trick: Call super().__init__ to set message in custom exceptions [OK]
