Mark,
I'm not sure if this is even documented,
I find this a bit inconsistent when compared to the behavior of other
statements,
E.g.:
* list expressions do have their scope and do not overwrite local variables
* with statement does overwrite
Oleksandr Suvorov added the comment:
What I mean is why would it need to shadow function variable name if after
except block it's always unbound, what is the reason and why this is
expected?

but if exc variable is only available in except block why then it shadows
the function variable name?

Oleksandr Suvorov added the comment:
But then why I still can access this variable? Shouldn't it then be
resulting in NameError as it's undefined variable at this point of time?
I think UnboundError creates more confusing here, as it's either the
variable should exist and have a value
New submission from Oleksandr Suvorov :
def foo(exc):
try:
1/0
except Exception as exc:
...
finally:
return exc
foo(1)
Executing the following code results in UnboundLocalError, while exc has been
defined and passed to a function explicitly.
I think
Oleksandr Suvorov added the comment:
This change requested just because I find it inconsistent and passing
translation as key-value is much easier to read rather than two lists.
When translation table gets bigger than 10 pairs it gets annoying to match
in the head between from and to while
Oleksandr Suvorov added the comment:
str.maketrans in python3 is able to accept just one argument which is a
mapping of translations.
While bytearray and bytes are still using only old way where you should
pass two iterables from and to.
static str.maketrans(x [,y [,z]])
static bytes.maketrans
