Your patience in the face of my hysterics is truly inspirational (no sarcasm!). I just want to say up front that I hope none of my emails come across as an attack. They are just coming from a place of passion. Based on your rational responses to me, I think you do understand that :) I am not

Re: [swift-evolution] [DRAFT] Regularizing Where Grammar (was Re: Add a while clause to for loops)

-1 An alternative would be to: 1) State clearly in all relevant documentation that ‘where’ filters and ‘while’ terminates. 2) Eliminate the use of ‘where’ within ‘while’ clauses. This seems pretty straightforward to me. The principle in #1 should be easy for even beginners

Re: [swift-evolution] [DRAFT] Regularizing Where Grammar (was Re: Add a while clause to for loops)

Thanks for the laugh! The last week or so is actually stressing me out about the direction where swift is going… I hope it is just a fleeting feeling but that remains to be seen. I am beginning to think my interests and taste are no longer aligning with the communities or core teams.

Following Brent's logic that the for-in where should mimic the switch statement functionality, then this example: for (eachKey, eachValue) where eachValue > 5 in theKeyValuePairs {... } Should read like: for (eachKey, eachValue where eachValue > 5) in theKeyValuePairs {... } And, for

Def like this change, but Erica I'm wondering what changed your mind about the syntax since the last I read you still were concerned by the ambiguity between filtering and exiting. On Thu, Jun 9, 2016 at 1:54 PM Erica Sadun via swift-evolution < swift-evolution@swift.org> wrote: > On Jun 9, 2016,

Re: [swift-evolution] [DRAFT] Regularizing Where Grammar (was Re: Add a while clause to for loops)

I believe this is for case conditionals in for loops only. There is another proposal to remove where from for loops I believe. I am curious, is there any conflict with the reasoning to move where here compared to the accepted SE-0081 "Move where clause to end of declaration"

Re: [swift-evolution] [DRAFT] Regularizing Where Grammar (was Re: Add a while clause to for loops)

I think the idea here is for a change from the first to the second of: for eachValue in theValues where eachValue.isOdd { … } for eachValue where eachValue.isOdd in theValues { … } I’m kind of split on this for a few reasons. The first is that it doesn’t ready quite as well
