 Here the while loop will never complete because the break will always be taken
 at some point.  Coverage.py can't work that out on its own, but the
-"no partial" pragma indicates that the branch is known to be partial, and
+"no branch" pragma indicates that the branch is known to be partial, and
 the line is not flagged.
