Does it annoy me when I have to work in other languages that lack Python's {for/while}/else functionality? You bet.I can imagine that. Could you describe the general use-case? From what I know, "else" is executed when you don't "break" the loop. When is this useful?
When one wants to know if the iterable contained an exceptional item or not or when one wants to know if the iterator is exhausted or not.
