I didn't intend to be harsh. Sorry if I failed.
Anyway, for me the errors provided by python are mostly very useful.
When I forget to read them, or I'm simply too impatient to try to
understand them, I use to get very hard debugging sessions. The
contrary is often true.
What I tried to emphasize is the importance of paying careful
attention to the error messages. It is a good habit to start doing
this from the beginning.
