🎯 ANOTHER PYTHON CHALLENGE: Can Your Code Feel Things?

Tired of dull exceptions? Let’s turn every error into art.


🧪 Your mission (should you accept it):

Write a Python function that turns exceptions into haikus. Yes—actual 5–7–5 haikus, delivered when your code breaks.


✅ Bonus points if:

  • Each exception type has its own poetic flavor (ValueError? Existential crisis.)

  • It’s short, beautiful, and reusable—maybe even a decorator 👀

  • You include at least one haiku that references the void 🌌


💡Why? Because code doesn’t always have to be cold and clinical. Sometimes it can cry softly in structured verse.


📬 Post your favorite haiku + your code snippet in the comments. Let’s make debugging… poetic.

Here is the code, can you do better:

import random

def haiku_on_exception(func):

def wrapper(*args, **kwargs):

try:

return func(*args, **kwargs)

except Exception as e:

haikus = {

"ValueError": [

"Digits overflow,\nMistakes dance in the silence—\nThe loop cries alone.",

"Miscalculated,\nThe sum drifted into mist—\nAll zeros now fade."

],

"TypeError": [

"Strings don't greet numbers,\nThey speak different languages—\nHarmony denied.",

"A type mismatch screams,\nSyntax stumbles through the fog—\nLogic breaks apart."

],

"KeyError": [

"Lost key in the void,\nMemory no longer speaks—\nWas it ever there?",

"You reached for the name,\nBut silence answered instead—\nMap of ghosts remains."

],

"default": [

"Code cracked like dry leaves,\nAutumn came to my logic—\nTry again, kind soul.",

"Exceptions arrive,\nNot with fire, but with sighs—\nStill, we build again."

]

}

error_type = type(e).__name__

haiku = random.choice(haikus.get(error_type, haikus["default"]))

print(f"\n🧨 Exception: {error_type}\n📜 {haiku}\n")

raise

return wrapper
