# Last Raised Exception In The Call Stack
|
||||
|
||||
In Ruby, the `$!` global variable contains the last exception that was
|
||||
raised in the current call stack. This makes it trivial to check what error
|
||||
is being rescued even if it hasn't been captured in a local variable.
|
||||
|
||||
```ruby
|
||||
class MyError < StandardError; end
|
||||
|
||||
def do_stuff
|
||||
raise MyError
|
||||
rescue
|
||||
puts "rescuing #{$!}"
|
||||
end
|
||||
|
||||
do_stuff
|
||||
#=> rescuing MyError
|
||||
```
