Hi all,
i would like to suggest the following Python feature. It naturally
happens that one want's to repeat the current iteration of a for loop
for example after an error happened. For this purpose, I usually set a
flag and put a while loop inside my for loop. A simple "repeat"
statement just like "continue" or "break" would make the code much more
readable.
This is my solution at the moment with A being checked:
for _ in range(n):
flag = True
while flag:
...
if A:
flag = False # go to next iteration
I would suggest the repeat statement in the following sense
for _ in range(n):
...
if not A:
repeat # repeat current iteration
Notice the "not" in the if clause. I am really looking forwars to hear
your opinions.
Best regards
Thomas
