- sgarland 2y agoIf `thing` already supports iteration, then yes, but sometimes you need to build your own [0]. [0]: https://docs.python.org/3/library/functions.html#iter https://docs.python.org/3/library/functions.html#iter
- maleldil 2y agoParent's example had a direct `iter(thing)`. Even if you had to use `iter(thing, sentinel)`, you'd still use `for val in iter(thing, sentinel)`, not while.
