for loop

How this happend to you ever? In the Programing world you use break to break out of a loop but in the real world you need a break to really continue.

I normally take a very hard look at a for loop that needs a break, wondering who and why TF wrote such a thing.

Think of it as a switch with an iterable. It has to break the iteration when it's finished doing what it has to do, or a millisecond or two of time will be lost forever.

I suppose that is in the same set of 'never use goto' and 'no multiple return'. That's a rather dogmatic approach that may work possibly with newbies, in my humble opinion. :)

With linq to sql I do this with
foreachloops for performance reasons... Allow me to elaborate with two examples: Option A:var queryResult = (from i in ctx.SomeTable
where i.ID == 42
select i);//
// Only continue if queryResult has an item
if (queryResult.Count() > 0)
{
//
// Do some work
}Option B:
var queryResult = (from i in ctx.SomeTable
where i.ID == 42
select i);//
// Only continue if queryResult has an item
bool ItemExsists = false;
foreach (var i in queryResult)
{
ItemExsists = true;
break;
}if (ItemExsists)
{
//
// Do Some Work
}queryResult.Count()is dead frign slow when all your interested in knowing is if there is at least one result in the collection. Option B isn't very pretty, but it works better than option A speed wise.Harvey Saayman - South Africa Software Developer .Net, C#, SQL

Then, what about Option C?
if (queryResult.Any())
{
//do some work.

[My articles]I like to add a goto inside my empty exceptions which then jump to a switch statement with multiple returns.

I often use break when there's one exception to the rule which is the loop condition. Including that extra exception into the loop declaration just makes it unclearer in my mind.
I always make exceptions as well. Exceptions rule.
