对我来说，典型的while循环是这样的:

xBool = True
# A counter to force a condition (eg. yCount = some integer value)

while xBool:
    # set up the condition (eg. if yCount > 0):
        (Do something)
        yCount = yCount - 1
    else:
        # (condition is not met, set xBool False)
        xBool = False

我也可以在while循环中包含一个for..循环，如果情况允许的话，for循环通过另一组条件。

内置的iter函数具体做到了这一点:

for x in iter(YOUR_FN, TERM_VAL):
    ...

例如(在Py2和3中测试过):

class Easy:
  X = 0
  @classmethod
  def com(cls):
    cls.X += 1
    return cls.X

for x in iter(Easy.com, 10):
  print(">>>", x)

如果你想给出一个终止条件而不是一个值，你总是可以设置一个等式，并要求这个等式为True。

如果您正在循环而资源不可用或抛出异常的类似情况下，您可以使用类似于

import time

while True:
    try:
       f = open('some/path', 'r')
    except IOError:
       print('File could not be read. Retrying in 5 seconds')   
       time.sleep(5)
    else:
       break

while condition is True: 
  stuff()
else:
  stuff()

这里有一个不同模式的更疯狂的解决方案——使用协程。代码仍然非常相似，但有一个重要的区别;根本就没有退出条件!当您停止向协程提供数据时，协程(实际上是协程链)就会停止。

def coroutine(func):
    """Coroutine decorator

    Coroutines must be started, advanced to their first "yield" point,
    and this decorator does this automatically.
    """
    def startcr(*ar, **kw):
        cr = func(*ar, **kw)
        cr.next()
        return cr
    return startcr

@coroutine
def collector(storage):
    """Act as "sink" and collect all sent in @storage"""
    while True:
        storage.append((yield))

@coroutine      
def state_machine(sink):
    """ .send() new parts to be tokenized by the state machine,
    tokens are passed on to @sink
    """ 
    s = ""
    state = STATE_CODE
    while True: 
        if state is STATE_CODE :
            if "//" in s :
                sink.send((TOKEN_COMMENT, s.split( "//" )[1] ))
                state = STATE_COMMENT
            else :
                sink.send(( TOKEN_CODE, s ))
        if state is STATE_COMMENT :
            if "//" in s :
                sink.send(( TOKEN_COMMENT, s.split( "//" )[1] ))
            else
                state = STATE_CODE
                # re-evaluate same line
                continue
        s = (yield)

tokens = []
sm = state_machine(collector(tokens))
for piece in i:
    sm.send(piece)

上面的代码将所有令牌收集为令牌中的元组，我假设原始代码中的.append()和.add()之间没有区别。

while True:
    try:
        # stuff
        stuff_1()
        if some_cond:
            continue
        if other_cond:
            break
        stuff_2()
    finally:
        # condition
        if not condition:
            break

[x]条件只检查后运行的东西 [x]不是函数调用 [x]条件不是函数调用 [x]的东西可以包含流量控制 []避免检查条件，如果东西叫break(可以用另一个布尔值)
