Hello,

I think that the expression "for...else" or "while...else" is completely 
counter-intuitive. Wouldn't it be possible to make it clearer? Maybe 
something like

     break in for i in range(n):
       ...
       if cond:
         break
     else:
       ...

I'm not an English native speaker so I don't know whether "break in" is 
acceptable English in this context or can only mean "to get into a 
building by force".
