Interestingly, I just saw a thread over at TurboGears(or is it this
group, I forgot) about this multiple return issue and there are people
who religiously believe that a function can have only one exit point.
def f():
r = None
for i in range(20):
if i > 10:
r = 10
break
if r is None: something
else: return r
