 Before an except clause's suite is executed, details about the exception are
 stored in the :mod:`sys` module and can be access via :func:`sys.exc_info`.
-:func:`sys.exc_info` returns a 3-tuple consisting of: ``exc_type``, the
-exception class; ``exc_value``, the exception instance; ``exc_traceback``, a
-traceback object (see section :ref:`types`) identifying the point in the program
-where the exception occurred. :func:`sys.exc_info` values are restored to their
-previous values (before the call) when returning from a function that handled an
-exception.
