Hi there,
is there a function in python which will populate a list with the results
of a function while the function returns something other than 'None'? I've
looked for something but can't find much, but it's something I'm doing so
often (especially while processing SQL databases) that I'm wondering if, if
it doesn't already exist, it could be a good idea for future versions.
eg:
def GrabSomeData:
somecursor.execute("SELECT x,y FROM z")
return unroll(somecursor.fetchone) *
* I figured "unroll" would be a good name for it :-)
