How can I break out of multiple loops?

break, control-flow, nested-loops, python

Solution

My first instinct would be to refactor the nested loop into a function and use `return` to break out.

Problem

Given the following code (that doesn't work): ``` while True: # Snip: print out current state while True: ok = get_input("Is this ok? (y/n)") if ok.lower() == "y": break 2 # This doesn't work :( if ok.lower() == "n": break # Do more processing with menus and stuff ``` Is there a way to make this work? Or do I have do one check to break out of the input loop, then another, more limited, check in the outside loop to break out all together if the user is satisfied?
