Error reporting has been an area that sadly has not improved a lot recently in the Python interpreter and users have been battling with very obscure runtime errors and puzzling syntax error messages that range from very generic (just “syntax error: invalid syntax”) to directly misleading (the error displayed for unclosed parentheses). This situation has frustrated users for a long time and has forced everyone into learning “what the interpreter really wants to say” or “where the error really could be”. This problem is especially acquitted for first-time learners of the language as they can lose a lot of time trying to decipher what the error messages they just got mean and where the problem may be.
