This idea elif x == funky_empty: result = 'no data' Can be accomplished with if not len(items): result = 'no data' which means that part of the proposal can be scratched IMHO.Not quite: len(items) requires iterating across the entire list which may not be necessary or desirable. Plus you may need an intermediate variable to store it. I think that's inferior.
This is moot anyway: in general, iterators have no __len__().

Thus spake the Lord: Thou shalt indent with four spaces. No more, no less.
Four shall be the number of spaces thou shalt indent, and the number of thy
indenting shall be four. Eight shalt thou not indent, nor either indent thou
two, excepting that thou then proceed to four. Tabs are right out.
