[Edu-sig] strange "else" behaviour (after "for", without "if")

[Jurgis Pralgauskis]

Hello,

does anyone know why this works without error on py 2.7?

for x in [2, 5, 1]:     print x
else:    print "nonsense"

the result:
2
5
1
nonsense


my students made such "composition", and I don't know myself why :)
