Its "last" what you are looking for. This will break out of the inner-most
loop. Optionally, you can put a label at the start of your loop and exit it by
name, like:
my $foo = 0;
OUTER: while (1) {
INNER: while (1) {
$foo++;
if ($foo > 1) last INNER;
}
}
The "last INNER" will exit the inner loop. If it were "last OUTER" it would
exit both of them immediately. This is the same thing as executing a GOTO
statement to a label outside the loops, but it seems cleaner in the code.
