Has any thought been given to adding elif to the for statement?
I don't think it is a good idea because it needlessly, from my point of view, embeds too much complexity into a single construct (making it more difficult to maintain, for instance). That's what language designer's do though--they kick ideas like that around. If you have a great idea, maybe propose a new language.
for x in foo: if y: break elif a==b: something else: something else as a shortcut to: for x in foo: if y: break else: if a==b: something else: something else bob gailer
