When you do this, you should include a meaningful error message to +indicate what the source of the error is. This makes your code more readable and helps significantly with debugging. Not +every exercise will require you to raise an exception, but for those that do, the tests will only pass if you include +a message. + +To raise a message with an exception, just write it as an argument to the exception type. For example, instead of +`raise Exception`, you shold write: + +```python +raise Exception("Meaningful message indicating the source of the error") +``` + + ## Submitting Exercises Note that, when trying to submit an exercise, make sure the solution is in the `exercism/python/<exerciseName>` directory. For example, if you're submitting `bob.py` for the Bob exercise, the submit command would be something like `exercism submit <path_to_exercism_dir>/python/bob/bob.py`.
