Why isn't there a do while flow control statement in python?

python

Solution

It has been proposed in PEP 315 but hasn't been implemented because nobody has come up with a syntax that's clearer than the `while True` with an inner `if-break`.

Problem

Is there a good reason why there isn't a do while flow control statement in python? Why do people have to write `while` and `break` explicitly?
