I didn't say that 'for...else' was inherently "intutively obvious". In fact I said the opposite of that. I said that *if* you start from the right premise then it *becomes* intuitively obvious. > This is comp.lang.python, not alt.english.remedial, so we expect you > to use English competently, or at least accept correction when you > misuse words. I'm glad your expectations are being met then. You might want to work on also reading English competently, and then everyone will be happy! >> As I said, I've provided a solution to the problem, what more >> do you want?

Your proposed solution is incorrect and false. Yes, your logical argument there as to why is undeniable. I must admit that your little gang's assertion that I'm foolish and mistaken because I find Python's syntax simple to understand and you find it hard to understand seems a little contradictory. -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
