Not to undermine this fact, but I believe the fact that `where` can be used in a for loop is not widely known. I didn't know about it until about a month ago (haven't really read much docs, but most people don't either). But after I found out about it, I started using it and it IMHO improved readability of my code. Not by much, but it's the little things that make you smile, right? Many people here argument that `where` is a Swift speciality and needs to be learned by the developer - the alternative is to teach the person what's the proper alternative - that using .filter can have performance impact and that the *correct* way is to use guard within the for loop. And that's IMHO much worse than teaching a person about using `where` within a for loop. > _______________________________________________ > swift-evolution mailing list > swift-evolution@swift.org <mailto:swift-evolution@swift.org> > https://lists.swift.org/mailman/listinfo/swift-evolution > <https://lists.swift.org/mailman/listinfo/swift-evolution>
