What you described Felix seems to be different to what was proposed, also I think (as you suggest) that `else` is unclear for what you describe.
To clarify, is what you're suggesting logically equivalent to this?
if let found = [1,2,3,4].find({ $0 == 3 }) {
print("exited early (\(found))")
}
extension SequenceType {
func find(
@noescape each: Generator.Element throws -> Bool
) rethrows -> Generator.Element? {
for element in self {
if try each(element) == false {
return element
}
}
return nil
}
}
If that's correct then I prefer the keyword in the other thread `nobreak` although it could be a better.
[swift-evolution] else clause for loops like that in Python
We'd have to confirm with Lee, but their example (this thread) seems oriented around zero items rather than early exit:
let items: Int =
for item in items {
print(item)
}
else {
print("No items")
}
My suggestion works for zero items.

This is more a demonstration that the for...else construct isn't obvious than a solution to the problem. In Python, the else branch of a for loop is executed when you went through all the iterations without breaking ("when the loop condition becomes false", which doesn't happen if you break from the loop).

This may do what you want:
let values: [Int] = [1,2,3,4]
if let sequence = nonEmptySequence(values) {
for element in sequence {
print("element: \(element)")
}
}
else {
print("empty!")
}
It's also more flexible, you can do work after the for loop (that work won't execute in the else), you can also use PeekSequence directly to get the first value. This is handy for something like an average (reduce) where you don't necessarily have a zero value.
The implementation can be found here: GitHub - therealbnut/PeekSequence: A Swift Sequence (allows consumable sequences) that you can peek values from.

It would be easy enough to add:
func forEach(
@noescape elements body: (Element) throws -> Void,
@noescape otherwise otherwise: () throws -> Void
) rethrows
to the standard library or write it yourself.
Not unless / until we get the ability for a noescape closure to influence control flow (break, return, etc). Even then this is clunkier than adding else to the language would be.

I frequently need something like that and I'd like to have it in Swift too.

This has likely been discussed already, but I haven't been able to find it anywhere.
Example:
let items: Int =
for item in items {
print(item)
}
else {
print("No items")
}
