How can I log exceptions in Python using the logging module?

You can use the logging module to log exceptions by configuring a logger and using a try-except block.

Can you show me a code example?

Sure! Here's a simple example:

import logging

# Configure logging
logging.basicConfig(level=logging.ERROR, filename='app.log')

try:
    1 / 0  # This will raise a ZeroDivisionError
except Exception as e:
    logging.exception('An error occurred')

What does logging.exception do?

logging.exception logs a message with level ERROR on the root logger, including the stack trace of the exception.

Is it possible to log to a file and the console at the same time?

Yes, you can set up multiple handlers in the logging configuration to log to both a file and the console.
