Keep-trying-until-it-works

Name: Anonymous 2011-04-23 0:42

Due to lack of gotos, this is the shortest way I can come up with to tell python to keep doing something until it actually works (in my case, loading a webpage) is this:

tempvar = 1
while tempvar == 1:
    try:
        <stuff that will either work or cause an exception>
        tempvar = 0
    except:
        pass


in c++ i could just

lbl: try{stuff} catch {goto lbl;}

better way?

What part of "I'm not a pythonist" is too hard for you to comprehend? Or do you just like to make yourself feel better by trolling randomly?

Python sucks; we all know that. There's no need to piss on me for making a simple suggestion.
