You could do something like ...

If len(my_iterable) is not 0:
for x in my_iterable:
     # do
else:
     # do something else

There should be a more code efficient way to do this.

Subject: empty clause of for loops

Hi,

a colleague of mine (I write this mail because I am on the list) has the following issue:


for x in my_iterable:
     # do
empty:
     # do something else


What's the most Pythonic way of doing this?

Best,
Sven
