Guido van Rossum <gu...@python.org> added the comment: Heh, that's old code! IIRC I wrote a lot of loops like that, it was a little C trick I had picked up that reduced the loop overhead (since comparing to 0 is quicker than comparing to a variable). And until 3.6 it didn't really matter. I very much doubt the loop speed matters. So go ahead and try changing it!
