[REBOL] Breaking out of loops

From: tedlandis:rogers at: 27-Nov-2002 14:12

Greetings again, When breaking out of a loop what is the best way to indicate this? for example: loop 100 [ ... if a = b [break] ... ] How do I tell if the loop was completed (all 100 iterations) or was terminated prematurely? Since all counter words (in for, repeat, etc.) seem to be local to the block, I am thinking something like: if loop 100 [ ... if a = b [break/return "Aborted"] ... ] = "Aborted" [do something else] ...but that doesn't seem very "clean"... Thanks, Ted
