Errors & exceptions

Typed runtime errors implement SPLException with a .kind string. You can catch them with structured try/except in SPL.

error.try():
# risky code
end;
error.except(error.DivisionByZeroError):
# handler
end;

error.DivisionByZeroError — e.g. math.div by zero
error.IndexOutOfRangeError — list, string, tuple bounds
error.UndefinedVariableError — unknown identifier
error.FileNotFoundError / error.IOError — file I/O

Handlers are merged when error.try(): is immediately followed by one or more error.except(...): blocks. String literals can match .kind as well.
