That's a nice example, but why not:
def combineIntoRecords(iterable):
iterator = iter(iterable)
optionalline = None
firstline = iterator.next()
secondline = iterator.next()
if condition(secondline):
optionalline = iterator.next()
lastline = iterator.next()
yield createRecord(firstline, secondline, optionalline, lastline)

def getData(lines):
return list(combineIntoRecords(filterJunk(lines)))
So, alas, my beloved for loop was not saved after all.
Fortunately, the dreaded While loop has been vanquished. In fact all
loopiness has disappeared. Along with any other semblance of a main
method.
I think I like the finished result. I'll leave if for you to decide if
you like it too.
