Subject: break out of a loop


Is there an idiomatic(or more elegant way) of finding out whether I exited
a loop normally or because of an exceptional condition?

e.g

10.times{
	# some processing

	#if (some condition)
		break
	end

	#further processing
}

# here i want to know if I came out because of the break or after looping
10 times.

Of course, one could set a flag to do the same, but I was wondering if
there was a 'better' way
