这里的else关键字可能会让人困惑，正如许多人指出的那样，像nobreak, notbreak这样的关键字更合适。

为了理解……其他的……从逻辑上讲，将它与try进行比较……Else，不是if…Else…，大多数python程序员都熟悉以下代码:

try:
    do_something()
except:
    print("Error happened.") # The try block threw an exception
else:
    print("Everything is find.") # The try block does things just find.

类似地，可以将break视为一种特殊的异常:

for x in iterable:
    do_something(x)
except break:
    pass # Implied by Python's loop semantics
else:
    print('no break encountered')  # No break statement was encountered

不同之处在于python暗示除了break，你不能把它写出来，所以它变成:

for x in iterable:
    do_something(x)
else:
    print('no break encountered')  # No break statement was encountered

是的，我知道这种比较可能会很困难和令人厌倦，但它确实澄清了困惑。

The easiest way I found to 'get' what the for/else did, and more importantly, when to use it, was to concentrate on where the break statement jumps to. The For/else construct is a single block. The break jumps out of the block, and so jumps 'over' the else clause. If the contents of the else clause simply followed the for clause, it would never be jumped over, and so the equivalent logic would have to be provided by putting it in an if. This has been said before, but not quite in these words, so it may help somebody else. Try running the following code fragment. I'm wholeheartedly in favour of the 'no break' comment for clarity.

for a in range(3):
    print(a)
    if a==4: # change value to force break or not
        break
else: #no break  +10 for whoever thought of this decoration
    print('for completed OK')

print('statement after for loop')

编辑-我注意到这个问题仍然在运行

第二个更好的想法……

“没有休息”的评论是负面的。要理解一个正的断言要容易得多，那就是for可迭代对象已经用完了。

for a in range(3):
    print(a)
    if a==4: # change value to force break or not
        print('ending for loop with a break')
        break
else: # for iterable exhausted  
    print('ending for loop as iterable exhausted')

print('for loop ended one way or another')

这也强化了这种解释

if iterable_supplies_a_value:
    run_the_for_with_that_value
else:
    do_something_else

for i in range(3):
    print(i)

    if i == 2:
        print("Too big - I'm giving up!")
        break;
else:
    print("Completed successfully")

"else"在这里非常简单，意思是

1、“if for从句是完整的”

for i in range(3):
    print(i)

    if i == 2:
        print("Too big - I'm giving up!")
        break;
if "for clause is completed":
    print("Completed successfully")

写“for从句已完成”这样长的语句是很笨拙的，所以他们引入了“else”。

否则这里本质上是一个如果。

2、然而，How about for从句根本没有出现

In [331]: for i in range(0):
     ...:     print(i)
     ...: 
     ...:     if i == 9:
     ...:         print("Too big - I'm giving up!")
     ...:         break
     ...: else:
     ...:     print("Completed successfully")
     ...:     
Completed successfully

所以这完全是逻辑组合:

if "for clause is completed" or "not run at all":
     do else stuff

或者这样说:

if "for clause is not partially run":
    do else stuff

或者这样:

if "for clause not encounter a break":
    do else stuff

else子句在循环正常完成后执行。这意味着The:==> 只有当循环没有被break语句终止时，才会在for/while语句之后执行else块

for item in lista:
if(obj == item ):
    print("if True then break will run and else not run")
    break;
else:
print("in  else => obj not fount ")

else语句块中的代码将在for循环未被打破时执行。

for x in xrange(1,5):
    if x == 5:
        print 'find 5'
        break
else:
    print 'can not find 5!'
#can not find 5!

来自文档:break和continue语句，以及循环中的else子句

Loop statements may have an else clause; it is executed when the loop terminates through exhaustion of the list (with for) or when the condition becomes false (with while), but not when the loop is terminated by a break statement. This is exemplified by the following loop, which searches for prime numbers: >>> for n in range(2, 10): ... for x in range(2, n): ... if n % x == 0: ... print(n, 'equals', x, '*', n//x) ... break ... else: ... # loop fell through without finding a factor ... print(n, 'is a prime number') ... 2 is a prime number 3 is a prime number 4 equals 2 * 2 5 is a prime number 6 equals 2 * 3 7 is a prime number 8 equals 2 * 4 9 equals 3 * 3 (Yes, this is the correct code. Look closely: the else clause belongs to the for loop, not the if statement.) When used with a loop, the else clause has more in common with the else clause of a try statement than it does that of if statements: a try statement’s else clause runs when no exception occurs, and a loop’s else clause runs when no break occurs. For more on the try statement and exceptions, see Handling Exceptions. The continue statement, also borrowed from C, continues with the next iteration of the loop: >>> for num in range(2, 10): ... if num % 2 == 0: ... print("Found an even number", num) ... continue ... print("Found a number", num) Found an even number 2 Found a number 3 Found an even number 4 Found a number 5 Found an even number 6 Found a number 7 Found an even number 8 Found a number 9
