Bug 2304 – Add else clause to for loops - executed unless break exits

Python has a useful optional else clause on for loops. The else clause is executed unless the loop exits with a break. See here: http://docs.python.org/ref/for.html Example: for(int i=0; i<10; i++) { if (a[i] == b) { printf("found at index %d\n", i); break; } } else { printf("not found\n"); } It should be pretty trivial to implement, and is a useful feature.

I'd prefer it be named "after" then "else" could be used if the loop never executes even once.

Five years old and no discussion.
