How to break out of multiple loops?

Question

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)\")
          


        

Answer 1

# this version breaks up to a certain label

break_label = None
while True:
    # snip: print out current state
    while True:
        ok = get_input("Is this ok? (y/n)")
        if ok == "y" or ok == "Y":
            break_label = "outer"   # specify label to break to
            break
        if ok == "n" or ok == "N":
            break
    if break_label:
        if break_label != "inner":
            break                   # propagate up
        break_label = None          # we have arrived!
if break_label:
    if break_label != "outer":
        break                       # propagate up
    break_label = None              # we have arrived!
