Exception Handling
##################

C++ Exceptions
**************
The type of the exception is ``std::runtime_error``
which is derived from ``std::exception`` .
If the standard exception member function ``what()`` is called,
the return value is a message describing the error.

Python Exceptions
*****************
The type of the exception is ``RuntimeError``.
If *err* is the exception, ``str`` (*err*) is
a message describing the error.
