# Better Flow Control with Python

I recently interviewed 4 developers for a Python programming position
They all knew how to use `requests`, call APIs and worked either with Django or Flask, but I saw all of them ignoring most of Python’s specific control flow. 

Here are two of them, `try/except/else/finally` and `for/else`:

```python
try: 
    # What you want to do, which might
    # very well raise an exception
except IndexError as ex: 
    # What do to when IndexError is raised
except MyModule.itsException as ex: 
    # What do to when MyModule raised an exception
except Exception as ex: 
    # What do to when any other Exception is raised
else:
    # Something specific to Python
    # This is executed when try did NOT raised any exception
finally: 
    # Exception or not, always excecute this block,
    # even if a return statement is above
```

```python
for item in mylist:
    # Processing each item here
else:
    # This 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.
```
