Have exception hit two except blocks in python -

here example of want in code:

class myclass(object):      @classmethod     def test_func(cls, x):          try:             return cls.cache[x]          except attributeerror:             cls.cache = {}          except (attributeerror, keyerror):             cls.cache[x] = "cache store"             return cls.cache[x] 

the idea here being class cache results based on input x. don't want start creating cache until it's needed. first time pass x this, want create cache, , fill something. there way make hit both except blocks? right hits first

as suggested in comment, make cache class attribute when create class. unless have really reason not to, you're needlessly complicating implementation

class myclass(object):      cache = {}      @classmethod     def test_func(cls, x):         try:             return cls.cache[x]         except keyerror:             cls.cache[x] = "cache store"             return cls.cache[x] 

once that, don't need try statement; can use setdefault.

@classmethod def test_func(cls, x):     return cls.cache.setdefault(x, "cache store")
