Breaking While Loop
#1
Hello,

I have potentially eight sequential ifs I need to test for, so instead of nesting eight if statements I thought to use a while loop.
My goal is for the while loop to end once one of my functions returns a value greater than 0. Is there a better way to achieve this
than my method below?

x = 0

while x == 0:

x = function returning 0, 1, or 2
if x > 0:
break

x = function with different arguments returning 0, 1, or 2
if x > 0:
break

x = function with different arguments returning 0, 1, or 2
if x > 0:
break

x = function with different arguments returning 0, 1, or 2
if x > 0:
break

x = function with different arguments returning 0, 1, or 2
if x > 0:
break

x = function with different arguments returning 0, 1, or 2
if x > 0:
break

x = function with different arguments returning 0, 1, or 2
if x > 0:
break

x = function with different arguments returning 0, 1, or 2
if x > 0:
break

x = 3
