Exception chaining and re-raising are essential skills for building reliable Python programs. When you catch an exception and need to signal a new one, you may want to preserve the original error context. Exception chaining allows you to do this, providing a full traceback that helps with debugging. Re-raising exceptions ensures that errors are not silently swallowed, making your code more robust and easier to maintain. Practice these concepts to handle errors gracefully and transparently in your applications.
