How to get out of a try/except inside a while? [Python]

Question

I\'m trying this simple code, but the damn break doesn\'t work... what is wrong?

while True:
    for proxy in proxylist:
        try:
            h = urllib.urlo         


        

Answer 1

break is breaking the innermost loop, which is the for loop in your case. To break from more than one loop you have few options:

1. Introduce a condition
2. Create a sub and use return

but in your case you actually don't need the outer while loop at all. Just remove it.
