Do Loop
|
|
=======
|
|
|
|
`do` loops have two opposite variants: `do` ... `while` and `do` ... `until`.
|
|
|
|
`continue` can be used to skip to the next iteration, by-passing all following statements;
|
|
`break` can be used to break out of the loop unconditionally.
|
|
|
|
```rust
|
|
let x = 10;
|
|
|
|
do {
|
|
x -= 1;
|
|
if x < 6 { continue; } // skip to the next iteration
|
|
print(x);
|
|
if x == 5 { break; } // break out of do loop
|
|
} while x > 0;
|
|
|
|
|
|
do {
|
|
x -= 1;
|
|
if x < 6 { continue; } // skip to the next iteration
|
|
print(x);
|
|
if x == 5 { break; } // break out of do loop
|
|
} until x == 0;
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
Do Expression
|
|
-------------
|
|
|
|
`do` statements can also be used as _expressions_.
|
|
|
|
The `break` statement takes an optional expression that provides the return value.
|
|
|
|
The default return value of a `do` expression is `()`.
|
|
|
|
```js
|
|
let x = 0;
|
|
|
|
// 'do' can be used just like an expression
|
|
let result = do {
|
|
if is_magic_number(x) {
|
|
// if the 'do' loop breaks here, return a specific value
|
|
break get_magic_result(x);
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
x += 1;
|
|
|
|
// ... if the 'do' loop exits here, the return value is ()
|
|
} until x >= 100;
|
|
|
|
if result == () {
|
|
print("Magic number not found!");
|
|
} else {
|
|
print(`Magic result = ${result}!`);
|
|
}
|
|
```
