you can create a function and call it:

def my_func():
    try:
        for i in w:
            #Loop code
    except:
        # here take care of exception, try to fix it, when it occurs
        my_funct()

if you don't want to start again:

try:
    for i in w:
        #Loop code
    except:
        # here take care of exception, try to fix it, when it occurs

lets say loop is processing at 1400 array if error occurs the function will start from 0th array right...instead i want to retry that particular array of loop(1400) – Mounarajan Apr 07 '15 at 04:35
Thats why in comment i said take care of exception and fix it – Hackaholic Apr 07 '15 at 04:38

What it seems your looking for is a recursive function. Something like,

# retries = 3
def do(x):
    try:
        y = something(x)
    except Exception as err:
        # while retries > 0:
        #    retries -= 1
            do(x)    
    else:
        print(y)

Note this will create an endless loop of retries unless you set a limiter somehow like the one I commented out.
