Unravelling `from` for `raise` statements
As part of my series on Python's syntax [https://snarky.ca/tag/syntactic-sugar/]
, I want to tackle the from clause for raise statements
[https://docs.python.org/3.8/reference/simple_
syntactic sugar
"In computer science, syntactic sugar is syntax within a programming language that is designed to make things easier to read or to express. It makes the language "sweeter" for human use: things can be expressed more clearly, more concisely, or in an alternative style that some may prefer."

Unravelling `finally` and `else` from `try` statements
In the last post [https://snarky.ca/unravelling-elif-else-from-if-statements/]
of my syntactic sugar series [https://snarky.ca/tag/syntactic-sugar/], I showed
how you can get away with not having elif and else clauses on
Unravelling `elif`/`else` from `if` statements
While I won't be attempting to unravel if statements entirely as part of my
blog
series on Python's syntactic sugar [https://snarky.ca/tag/syntactic-sugar/], I
will be attempting
Unravelling `break` and `continue`
I have previously unravelled for loops
[https://snarky.ca/unravelling-for-statements/], and so the concept of looping
has already come up in this blog post series of removing the syntactic sugar
from Python. But
Unravelling decorators
For the next post in my syntactic sugar series
[https://snarky.ca/tag/syntactic-sugar/], I thought I would tackle decorators
[https://docs.python.org/3.8/reference/compound_stmts.html#function-definitions]
.
