""" Call a function repeatedly until an exception is raised.
Converts a call-until-exception interface to an iterator interface.
Like __builtin__.iter(func, sentinel) but uses an exception instead
of a sentinel to end the loop.
Examples:
bsddbiter = iter_except(db.next, bsddb.error, db.first)
heapiter = iter_except(functools.partial(heappop, h), IndexError)
dictiter = iter_except(d.popitem, KeyError)
dequeiter = iter_except(d.popleft, IndexError)

Note, many of the above recipes can be optimized by replacing global lookups
with local variables defined as default values. For example, the
*dotproduct* recipe can be written as::
