| 09:55 | < Erik> | I have eight continues in this for loop. :O (would have been nine, but the pattern winds up placing the ninth continue at a branch in the end of the loop. Unnecessary.) |
| 09:57 | | You're now known as TheWatcher |
| 10:16 | <~Vornicus> | the heck are you doing |
| 10:19 | < Erik> | try: (var = access dict 1 with questionable key), except: continue. if not var: try: (var = access dict 2 with questionable key), except: continue. if not var: continue. #if we got here, we have var. #do things with var. |
| 10:19 | < Erik> | continue is basically saving me a whole load of nested conditionals |
| 10:20 | < Erik> | Without it I'd be indenting easily ten deep |
| 10:20 | <~Vornicus> | This seems... smelly. |
| 10:23 | < Erik> | well, continue is basically cleaned-up goto |
| 10:25 | <~Vornicus> | Yes, but the overall structure here seems like it could be seriously reduced. |
| 10:26 | <~Vornicus> | Like for one thing, you could be using dict1.get(key) |
| 10:27 | <~Vornicus> | var = dict1.get(key); if not var: dict2.get(key); if not var: continue #if we got here, we have var. |
| 10:28 | <~Vornicus> | well, okay, it's not quite right - if dict1 doesn't have it then it should just continue, but I don't quite understand the point then. |
| 10:29 | | * Erik tries to see where he can prune in the full tree. |
| 10:30 | <~Vornicus> | try: for d in pile_of_dicts: var = d[k]; if var: break;; except: continue; #got var, let's do this |
| 10:32 | < Erik> | no, I'm doing too many other things as well, but thanks |
| 10:32 | < Erik> | and I will take the advice to reduce the amount of continues where I can |
| 10:33 | <~Vornicus> | Also you can wrap more than one statement in a try. |

| 11:07 | <~Vornicus> | Don't need to put None if you're using get like that -- it defaults to that. |

| 11:42 | <@Azash> | Out of curiosity, wouldn't it be better to just have an array of dicts, iterate through and break the loop when your var gets assigned a value? |
| 11:42 | <@Azash> | It's much less verbose and allows you to have an easier time adding/removing dicts |
| 11:45 | < Erik> | It would, if things were simpler. But in the full version I didn't post, I'm getting data from a second dict with the key I got from a first dict, accessing one of two dicts and doing different things depending on which one I got, etc. |
| 11:46 | < Erik> | I have pruned down to five continues so far |
