Thanks for pointing out. I accept your advice and will try to make the
questions clearer and more straightforward to interpretate . I already took
the suggestion of using exception-based handling over the return code.

As to testing whether the previous function fails or succeeds, this doesn't
really matter in the sense that I already mentioned a return code of 0.

that he turned his flamethrowers on you. :)

Given that Frank originally stated this

"
I have a requirement where I need to sequentially execute a bunch of executions, each execution has a return code. the followed executions should only be executed if the return code is 0. is there a cleaner or more pythonic way to do this other than the following ?

if a() == 0:
    if b() == 0:
        c()
"

I can only see one way that you can possibly intepret it. Perhaps rr was dashing off a reply on a mobile device while doing a home run, hence wasn't concentrating on what Frank had actually said?
