Hello b4swine,

I think you’re going to have to add a variable of your own; e.g.:

#! perl
use strict;
use warnings;
use Data::Dump;

my   $count = 0;
my   @list  = (rand(1), rand(1), rand(1));
dd  \@list;

for (@list)
{
    last if $_ < 0.5;
    ++$count;
}

if ($count < @list)
{
    print "exited via last\n";
}
else
{
    print "ran to completion\n";
}

Example output:

23:49 >perl 1610_SoPW.pl
[
  0.894318423773260207,
  0.645644715844781558,
  0.544934475599927026,
]
ran to completion

23:51 >perl 1610_SoPW.pl
