My reading of this is that the loop consists of a single filtered iteration, ergo break/continue/else are as if the loop used a generator: # for item in items if item is not None: for item in (item for item in items if item is not None): These two would be semantically equivalent, and the first one has the advantage of not sounding like the Cheshire Cat as Alice entered 'Machinations'. << Time to jump in time to jump through time....
