Breaking/Continuing nested for loops in Coffeescript

Question

How can I break/continue nested loops in Coffeescript? E.g. I have something like:

for cat in categories   for job in jobs     if condition       do(this)       ## Iterate to the next cat in the first loop 

Also, is there a way to wrap the whole second loop as a conditional to another function within the first loop? E.g.

for cat in categories   if conditionTerm == job for job in jobs     do(this)     ## Iterate to the next cat in the first loop   do(that) ## Execute upon eliminating all possibilities in the second for loop,            ## but don't if the 'if conditionTerm' was met 

Answer 1

break works just like js:

for cat in categories   for job in jobs     if condition       do this       break ## Iterate to the next cat in the first loop 

Your second case is not very clear, but I assume you want this:

for cat in categories     for job in jobs       do this       condition = job is 'something'     do that unless condition

Use labels. Since CoffeeScript doesn't support them, you need to hack as such:

0 && dummy `CAT: //` for cat in categories   for job in jobs     if conditionTerm == job       do this       `continue CAT` ## Iterate to the next cat in the first loop   do that ## Execute upon eliminating all possibilities in the second for loop,           ## but don't if the 'if conditionTerm' was met
