In python, is there a difference between raise and raise e in an except block?
dis is showing me different results, but I don't know what it means.
What's the end behavior of both?
import dis
def a():
try:
raise Exception()
except Exception as e:
raise
def b():
try:
raise Exception()
except Exception as e:
raise e
dis.dis(a)
