[issue16571] Iterating over inconsistently-indented code block causes execution of code only on last iteration of loop
New submission from Brian Berard: When a loop (for loop in this case) contains multiple lines of code, if the lines are inconsistently indented, the for loop will only execute those lines on the final pass through the loop with no type of warning regarding indentation error. Ex. for i in range(0,10): print I will print on every iteration: %d % i # TAB indented print I will only print on the final iteration: %d % i # 4 spaces -- components: Interpreter Core files: python_test.py messages: 176551 nosy: dimitriprosser priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: Iterating over inconsistently-indented code block causes execution of code only on last iteration of loop type: behavior versions: Python 2.7 Added file: http://bugs.python.org/file28149/python_test.py ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue16571 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com

[issue16571] Iterating over inconsistently-indented code block causes execution of code only on last iteration of loop
Mark Dickinson added the comment: This is expected behaviour for Python 2.x: Python interprets every TAB character as advancing to the next multiple-of-8 column, regardless of how your editor sees it. It would be too disruptive to change this behaviour in Python 2.x. It's already fixed in Python 3: there it's a syntax error to mix tabs and spaces in this way. Python 2.7 gives a warning if you run with the '-3' flag. -- nosy: +mark.dickinson resolution: - wont fix status: open - closed ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue16571 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com

Ned Batchelder added the comment: @Brian: Your code doesn't run in Python 2.7 as you've shown it, it produces an IndentationError. If your code is actually different, and does run, try running it with the -tt flag on Python, which will warn about inconsistent indentation. -- nosy: +nedbat ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue16571 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com

Brian Berard added the comment: @nedbat I'm able to run that code as is and receive no such error. With the -tt option, I do receive an indentation error. I will keep that in mind. -- ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue16571 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
