Emulate a do-while loop in Python?

Question

I need to emulate a do-while loop in a Python program. Unfortunately, the following straightforward code does not work:

list_of_ints = [ 1, 2, 3 ]
iterator =         


        

Answer 1

My code below might be a useful implementation, highlighting the main difference between do-while vs while as I understand it.

So in this one case, you always go through the loop at least once.

first_pass = True
while first_pass or condition:
    first_pass = False
    do_stuff()
