: The "while <expr> as <var>:" for has a certain level of attraction, because it does deal very well with a very common case, but I don't know that it would make that much difference in my code.
Note that what I like in it is *not* that it solves a lot of cases, but that it makes the syntax more coherent, and solves a common case in the way, :)
That's not how I would define "coherent". It adds one more special case. See the zen of Python for that. -- --Guido van Rossum (home page: http://www.python.org/~guido/)
