Hi George - I haven't found another way to get out of a huge FOR loop for certain mathematical searches. I don't possibly want to run the entire loop if a condition fails, for example:
FOR ncount = 1 to 2**20
... some code
if some condition fails
EXIT
endif
ENDFOR
I know you can use WHILE with condition instead, but FOR is supposed to be faster, and I need speed for this stuff. Any alternatives?
Also, I noticed at last Devcon not all were using 'l' prefix for locals any longer. Since there are, in theory, now only properties, parameters, and local vars, do we really still need the 'l' for local? Or is this heresy? :)
