Subject: return from yielded block


i saw something like this recently on clr but can't seem to find it ...

what i want to do is something like

  value = meth 42

where

  def meth n
    block_meth do
      if n == 42
        return 'forty-two'
      else
        return 'ask another question'
      end
    end
  end

  def block_meth
    yield
  end


the problem is that you can't 'return' from a block - so how is this done?
