Funnily enough, this was mentioned just yesterday on a quite not directly related thread, https://github.com/WebAssembly/design/issues/796#issuecomment-737244573 . As it points out, it's PEP 3136 https://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-3136/ , proudly bearing the badge of "Rejected". And the rejection is likely right than wrong - why patch-up language with adhoc stuff to break thru loops, if the language already offers means to break thru *absolutely any levels of anything*, including nested function calls. It's try/raise, please enjoy its usage for this purpose too, like other people do already. -- Best regards, Paul mailto:pmis...@gmail.com _______________________________________________ Python-ideas mailing list -- python-ideas@python.org To unsubscribe send an email to python-ideas-le...@python.org https://mail.python.org/mailman3/lists/python-ideas.python.org/ Message archived at https://mail.python.org/archives/list/python-ideas@python.org/message/CBGTGZLG6VCYBB5N6NTGKQHTKDYNCUE5/ Code of Conduct: http://python.org/psf/codeofconduct/
