What is the appropriate way to break out of this while loop if the for
loop finds a match?
while 1:
for x in xrange(len(group)):
try:
mix = random.sample(group, x)
make_string = ''.join(mix)
n = md5.new(make_string)
match

You either need to set a marker flag with multiple breaks - *or*
(probably more pythonic) wrap it in a try..except and raise an
exception. Define your own exception class and just trap for that if
you want to avoid catching other exceptions.
There is no single command to break out of multiple

Define a flag first:
keepGoing = True
while 1:
while keepGoing:
for x in xrange(len(group)):
try:
...
if match == target:
print
Thanks guys... that works great. Now I understand why sometimes logic
such as 'while not true' is used ;)

another option not yet suggested is simply to collapse the two loops into a
single loop:
import itertools
for x in

Refactor it into something easier to comprehend?
And comments never go astray.
(Untested. And my docstrings are obviously bogus.)

queue discussion why Python doesn't have a break N statement...

Make it a function and use a return statement to break out.
