finally clause

[Skaperen]

so if the exception might happen, finally: assures that you can close/teardown while not actually handling the exception, or doing continue/return/break in except:. unless using continue/return/break i see following code as equivalent. but have been assuming their would always be an except:. now i understand there might not be, and there are 4 ways to change flow, the 3 statements continue, return, break, and the lack of except: (exception causing the flow change). yet another reason to be happy there is no goto.
