Re: New switch/case idea

I said that break breaks from it's enclosing statement, whatever that may be, a switch or if.

X = 1 
condition = 1 
switch X do 
   case 1 then 
      if condition then break end if 
      X = 2 
end switch 
? X 

That will print 2. break broke from the if, not the switch. Now, if you want it to break from the switch, you would:

X = 1 
condition = 1 
switch X label "top_switch" do 
   case 1 then 
      if condition then break "top_switch" end if 
      X = 2 
end switch 
? X 

Now X will print 1.
