To abort a [While] loop when a value is found:
Use the [Loop_Abort] method. The following example shows a [Loop] loop which performs a calculation until a negative value is found and [Loop_Abort] is called.
The variable result returns -1 at the end since (50-51) is less than 0.
Code
Loop(100) => {
var(Result = 50 - loop_count)
$Result < 0 ? loop_abort
}
$ResultResult
-1
