jquery - how to exit (break function) from each statement?

Question

for example I use following code:

$("img").each(function(i){      x += $("img:eq(" + i ")").width();      if(some conditional) return; }); 

after return I would like to not adding anything to x, how could I achieve it?

From the JQuery doco...

We can break the $.each() loop at a particular iteration by making the callback function return false. Returning non-false is the same as a continue statement in a for loop; it will skip immediately to the next iteration.

So essentially this means...

return false; = break;

return true; or return; = continue;
