Version 1/211209 of If True by Zed Lopez begins here. "Allow if/unless and while to accept plain truth states instead of a full conditional. If Strange Loopiness is included, extend that to until loops. For 6M62." Part if/unless with truth states Chapter if with truth state To if (t - a truth state) begin -- end conditional: (- if ({t}) -) Chapter unless with truth state To unless (t - a truth state) begin -- end conditional: (- if (~~({t})) -) Part while loops Chapter while truth state plain [ for an infinite loop, just ``while true:``. it's your responsibility to break out! ] To while (t - a truth state) begin -- end loop: (- while ({t}) -). Chapter while truth state with index To while (t - a truth state) with/using index (index - nonexisting number variable) begin -- end loop: (- {index} = 0; while ({t} && ++{index}) -). Book Repetition (for use with Strange Loopiness by Zed Lopez) Chapter until truth state To repeat until (t - a truth state) begin -- end loop: (- do {-block} until ({t}); -) Chapter until truth state with index To repeat until (t - a truth state) with/using index (index - nonexisting number variable) begin -- end loop: (- {index} = 0; do if (++{index}) {-block} until ({t}); -) If True ends here.
