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?
for item in collection:
if good(item):
thing = item
break
else:
thing = default # or raise an exception, etc
I was thinking about why we don't use it that often. My response to this
example:
thing = item if item in collection else default
