Instead of disabling fallthrough by default, why not disable it all together?
I was tempted but there are cases in which it's useful. An example
switch day casein ("Monday", "Thursday", "Wednesday", "Tuesday", "Friday"):
gotowork = True
continue
casein ("Monday", "Thursday", "Wednesday", "Tuesday", "Friday"):
daytype = "ferial"
casein ("Saturday", "Sunday")
daytype = "festive"
Absolutely not. Currently, the 'continue' key word means "stop processing and go
back to the beginning". You would
have it mean "keep going forward". Thus 'continue' would mean both "go backwards" and
"go forwards" and would lead to
unnecessary confusion.
I thought it went to the end of the loop, but because it's a loop, it
just wraps around back to the top...
