.. function:: exception()

-   This function returns the exception instance that is currently being
-   handled.  This exception is specific both to the current thread and
-   to the current stack frame.  If the current stack frame is not handling
-   an exception, the exception is taken from the calling stack frame, or its
-   caller, and so on until a stack frame is found that is handling an
-   exception.  Here, "handling an exception" is defined as "executing an
-   except clause." For any stack frame, only the exception being currently
-   handled is accessible.

-   .. index:: object: traceback
-
-   If no exception is being handled anywhere on the stack, ``None`` is
-   returned.
