Subject: Re: while loop : execute code and THEN check condition

Although
begin
  ...
end while condition

is the idiomatic way to do this I often write my loops as follows

loop do
   ...
   break if/unless condition
   ...
end

I prefer it even more if my code can be refactored to

loop do
    ...
    return ...
    ...
end

Cheers
Robert
