Remember to:

• Ask your Python question, not if you can ask or if there's an expert who can help.
• Show a code sample as text (rather than a screenshot) and the error message, if you've got one.
• Explain what you expect to happen and what actually happens.

:warning: Do not pip install anything that isn't related to your question, especially if asked to over DMs.

Closes after a period of inactivity, or when you send !close.

I think this is because del deletes from globals and locals, but Exception is a builtin, so it's neither.

Note the "B" in "LEGB"

!e

print(Exception)
del __builtins__.Exception
print(Exception)

001 | <class 'Exception'>
002 | Traceback (most recent call last):
003 |   File "/home/main.py", line 3, in <module>
004 |     print(Exception)
005 |           ^^^^^^^^^
006 | NameError: name 'Exception' is not defined. Did you mean: 'BaseException'?

Seems like a bug that it suggests another built-in
