Jump inside FOR/NEXT Loop
« on: June 30, 2023, 05:45:03 PM »
Is there a way to "jump" forward inside a FOR/NEXT loop? Similar to the CONTINUE instruction, but not entirely to the end. Rather, to a defined point in the loop.

Maybe roll up everything you want to skip in a subroutine and don't call it on those passes?

I retract my earlier statement that half of all politicians are crooks.  Half of all politicians are NOT crooks.  There.

GOTO/LABEL  Spaghetti code at its finest.

Just make sure you don't GOTO a LABEL that is out of the loop (stage, code block, etc.)

Perfect. The help file only showed BREAK, CONTINUE, REPEAT, UNTIL, WEND, WHILE as my options for a FOR Index Loop. GOTO, LABEL however, do link back to FOR, NEXT. I don't think my code will get too spaghetti like with a simple addition to skip partial loop code for certain index ranges.

Thanks!
