[Gretl-devel] continue statement for flow control

Hi all, from time to time I come up with nested if-else statements. I've realized that code could be more readable if gretl would have a type of the 'continue' command which is also known in C if I am not wrong. The continue statement would continue with the next iteration of the loop. This could also lead to less computation as the flow can be changed early in the loop. Let me come up with a constructed example -- I hope it shows my point for the usefulness of such a statement: <hansl> scalar k = 2 loop i=1..3 -q     scalar n = randgen1(i, 0, 3)     if n == 0         # get out here and proceed with i++     else         if n == 1             # get out here and proceed with i++         else             # do something clever here             if k > 2                 # get out here and proceed with i++             else                 # do something clever here             endif         endif     endif endloop # Example with 'continue' loop i=1..3 -q     scalar n = randgen1(i, 0, 3)     if n == 0         continue     endif     if n == 1         continue     endif     if k > 2         continue     else         # do something clever here     endif endloop </hansl> What do you think about this feature? Best, Artur
