you might also want to have a look at redo and continue.
this "code" shows where next, redo and last jump, if continue is present:
while (EXPR) { REDO: #body of while block } continue { NEXT: #body of next block } LAST:
without continue it looks slightly different:
NEXT: while (EXPR) { REDO: # body of while block } LAST:

perls next, redo and last can also be used to get out of a deeper level of iteration:

# nb this is stupid code that shortens lines (a char at a time) # and prints the result, until it finds a z at the first pos. LINE: foreach(<>) { while(s/^.//) { print; last LINE if /^z/; #this also breaks the foreach loop. -- it j +umps to the print "done"; statement } } print "done";

Title:
Use:  <p> text here (a paragraph) </p>
and:  <code> code here </code>
to format your post; it's "PerlMonks-approved HTML":



  • Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
  • Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
    <code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
  • Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
  • Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
