I have this snippet in my web application. Question is why doesn't the
stupid thing loop ten times? It loops exactly 1 time.
One thing we repeatedly tell people who post code with problems (here or
on the tracker) is to reduce it to the minimun needed to demonstrate the
problem. The reason is the with noise removed, the cause is more obvious.
# Reset counter
counter = 0
while counter <= 10:
return "<p>Long line with games</p>"
counter=counter+1
Chris did the reduction for you, and ...
When you hit the 'return', it stops the function immediately :)
the problem can hardly be missed.
Another approach is to start with the minimum that exhibits the control
flow you want and then add content.
