I'm asking about why the behavior of a StopIteration exception being
handled from the `expression` of a generator expression to mean "stop
the loop" is accepted by "the devs" as acceptable.
Any unhandled exception within a loop stops the loop,
and the exception is passed to the surrounding code.
To continue your
comparison to for loops, it's as if a loop like this:
for a in b:
c
actually meant this:
for a in b:
try:
c
except StopIteration:
break
No it does not.
No what does not? I said "It is as if". This is a hypothetical. I'm
not claiming this is the actual behavior of anything.
Note, I know *why* the implementation leads to this behavior.
You do not seem to know what the behavior is.
Read what I wrote last night.
Well, I'm a bit tired of this thread. Please disregard my question
above. I'm done here. Sorry for the confusion. Have a nice day.
