It may be worth noting that several languages (eg Perl, Ruby) spell "break" as "last". Actually Ruby spells "last" as "break". -- -- Jim Weirich jim@weirichhouse.org [link\|http://onestepback.org\|http://onestepback.org] --------------------------------------------------------------------- "Beware of bugs in the above code; I have only proved it correct, not tried it." -- Donald Knuth (in a memo to Peter van Emde Boas)
Post #174,216 by ben_tilly 9/14/04 1:51:16 PM Reply	D'oh I was sure that Perl isn't alone in spelling "break" as "last", am I wrong about that? From a quick Google it seems that I was. Or at least no other language using last has achieved anywhere near the popularity of Perl...

But I get back into the mindset in an hour or so.
