A very similar proposal was rejected: https://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-3136/. Also, see the discussion in https://mail.python.org/archives/list/python-ideas@python.org/thread/26PAGUT... . If you'd still like to propose this, you'll have to present an argument against the reasons why the other proposals were rejected.

Hello,

I was thinking about giving loops names. And It would be interesting if through this name in a continue or break statement could be called.

A little example what I mean:

loop *"outloop" **while True*: actmonth = datetime.datetime.now().month loop *"innerloop" **for *i *in *range(0, int(input())): *if *datetime.datetime.now().month != actmonth: *break * *"outloop" **else*: print(*"Waiting for a new Month..."*)

*# Do some stuff if loop ended before new Month*

Without giving names it’s always needed to define a new variable and a if statement outside of the innerloop, like this:

*while True*: actmonth = datetime.datetime.now().month shouldend = *False for *i *in *range(0, int(input())): *if *datetime.datetime.now().month != actmonth: shouldend =

*True break else*: print(*"Waiting for a new Month..."*)

*if *shouldend:

*break **# Do some stuff if loop ended before new Month*

It’s possible without it, but it is more readable.

Maybe another option is, but that’s too deep, to make loops to objects.
