Process Summary notes for Script 3:

1.      Initially I ran the script to locate the error and type.

2.      I used a try statement at line 13 and an except statement and print command on lines 15 and 15 to generate the error that two arguments for needed in line 14

3.      I then ran the script to locate the next error and type.

4.      I used a try statement at line 17 and an except statement and print command on lines 24-26 to print “parks” and then return the error that “mapdoc” and “lyrlist” were not defined.

5.      I ran the script again to locate the next error

6.      I used a try statement at line 27 and an except statement and print command at lines 30-31 to return the “mapdoc” and “lyrlist” were not defined.

7.      I then removed all my try and except statements except the first try statement at line 13.

8.      I placed my except statement at line 23 except (TypeError, NameError): and a print command on lines 24 and 25 to return the error types and the layer name that was supposed to be returned if the script was corrected.

9.      When I ran the script again, the errors for part A printed and the script continued to run through Part B and generate the Name, Spatial reference and scale of the dataframe.
