How to catch multiple exceptions at once and deal with an individual one.

Answer: You can use built-in type() to determine the type of the error object.

try:
    pass
except (EOFError, FileNotFoundError) as e:
    if type(e) is EOFError:
        deals_with_EOFError()
    else:
        deals_with_FileNotFoundError()

This is because every exception in python is a child of built-in Exception class of python.

try:
    # anything you have to do
except Exception as e:
    if type(e) == EOFError:
        # do what is necessary
    elif type(e) == FileNotFoundError
        # do what is necessary
