A repo-wide `ruff format` run reformatted 14 files belonging to 13
unrelated tutorials. Because pyproject.toml sets target-version = "py314",
ruff applied PEP 758 and stripped the parentheses from multi-exception
except clauses in 9 published sample files:
except (ZeroDivisionError, ValueError): -> except ZeroDivisionError, ValueError:
That syntax is valid on Python 3.14 but a SyntaxError on 3.13 and earlier,
so those materials would stop running for most readers - and the CI matrix
is Python 3.14 only, so it stays green either way.
Reverts all 14 files to master. No changes to cursor-vs-copilot-python/.

Hi @brianMutea — this targets your
cursor-vs-copilot-pythonbranch (PR #802), notmaster. Merging it here cleans up #802 in place; none of your own work is touched.What happened
A repo-wide
ruff formatrun picked up 14 files belonging to 13 unrelated tutorials. Easy to hit — the README does say to run the formatter, it just needs scoping to your own folder.Why it matters
pyproject.tomlsetstarget-version = "py314", so ruff applied PEP 758 and stripped the parentheses from multi-exceptionexceptclauses in 9 published sample files:That's valid on Python 3.14 but a
SyntaxErroron 3.13 and earlier — verified on 3.11, 3.12 and 3.13. Those files are downloadable materials for live tutorials, so they'd stop running for most readers.python-multiple-exceptionsis the sharpest case: its samples would no longer match what the article teaches.The CI matrix is Python 3.14 only, so this stays green either way — worth a separate look by the team.
