Modern Perl p. 33 "continue" -- what is a "with" loop?

beginners:

I'm reading "Modern Perl". I'm not sure where to get help with the
technical content of the book. STFW I've found:

http://onyxneon.com/books/modern_perl/index.html

http://www.modernperlbooks.com/mt/index.html

https://github.com/chromatic/modern_perl_book/wiki

https://github.com/chromatic/modern_perl_book/issues


I haven't found a mailing list, forum, wiki, etc., for questions and
answers, so I'm posting here.


On p. 33 when discussing "continue", chromatic states:

"You may use it with a while, until, with, or for loop."


What is a "with" loop?


TIA,

David

I think he probably means a 'when' block -- see the last paragraph in
for an explanation
of how that works.

David, to answer the semi-unasked other question in your first email,
I think this is a fine forum to ask questions that occur to you as
you're reading _Modern Perl_.

chrs,
john.
