Considering the following two program,running the program 1 will get expected output: RecursionError 

program 1
===========================
import traceback

def foo():
	try:
		1/0
	except Exception as e:
		traceback.print_exc()
	finally:
		a = 1
	foo()	
		
foo()

During handling of the above exception, another exception occurred:

  File "/usr/lib/python3.5/linecache.py", line 43, in getlines
    if len(entry) != 1:
RecursionError: maximum recursion depth exceeded in comparison
------------------------------------------------------------------------

However when moving foo() into finally clause, the interpreter crashes.

	try:

	except Exception as e:
		traceback.print_exc()
	finally:
		a = 1
		foo()	
		
foo()
