Suppose i define a function like this:

def convert(num):
    try:
        return int(num)
    except ValueError as e:
        raise Exception(f"Error Value error exception occurred: {str(e)}")

Now while using this function i also want to catch exceptions unrelated to ValueError

I tried something like this:

try:
    convert([1, 2])  # passing a list to cause type error
except Exception as e:
    print(f"Error An exception occurred but it's not a value error: {str(e)}")

This worked but when i go to another scenario where ValueError exception will be raised:

try:
    convert("not a number")
except Exception as e:
    print(f"Error An exception occurred but it's not a value error: {str(e)}")

Output: Error An exception occurred but it’s not a value error: invalid literal for int() with base 10: ‘not a number’

Although the above code is indeed raising ValueError and i was assuming this to be caught by my convert function raise statement instead.

So am assuming it has something to do with how try and except block functions. I appreciate any type of help.
