Run a function after keyboard interrupt in python

Question

def print_data():
    print("print keyboardinterrupt")
    try:
        while True:
            print(1)
    except KeyboardInterrupt:
        print_data()
    exit()

I want the output as the print statement in the print_data function when I press ctrl+F2 in pycharm. I am using pycharm 2018.3 version and python 2.7.16 version.

Below is the code to run a function when keyboard interruption occurs.

import signal


print("press ctrl+c for interruption") 

def xyz():

    print("im xyz")

  

def keyboardInterruptHandler(signal, frame):

    xyz()

    #print("call your function here".format(signal))

    exit(0)

signal.signal(signal.SIGINT, keyboardInterruptHandler)

while True:

    pass

Hope this helps!!
