Ugh :-)
But...
What if break were implemented with an exception, like StopIteration but
for interruption instead of stop? And for-loops were an implied
try/except:
for ...
except BrokenIteration: # <-- implied
pass
and you could go:
for ...
except BrokenIteration:
... a break occurred
else:
... a break did not occur
and, indeed,
for ...
except BrokenIteration:
... a break occurred
except StopIteration as stopped:
print("I did", stopped.count, "iterations")
else:
# not reached because of the "except StopIteration" above
... a break did not occur
if we wanted to cover off the count iterations wish item.
