Class: UnknownError

A fallback error thrown by any unknown sources or unexpected failure that are not of NameError.

In this particular case, an origin remains useful as it provides details on the sources and the true nature of the unexpected error. At this point, deciding whether to exit the program or not depends on the programmer.
