Re^3: Control Structures

Er, perhaps I'm badly missunderstanding you, but wouldn't:
loop; S while !B: T; repeat;
Translate fairly literally in to:

{ S while !B; T; redo; }

In which case I don't understand your "practical perlish way".

S and T should be done on every iteration, except when B goes true, in which case the final T should be skipped. Your syntax seems to do a lot of S repetitions then one T, and repeats endlessly. -- `[ e d @ h a l l e y . c c ]`	[reply]
