    Ruby does that (well you use the keyword “end” instead of a bracket) but it fell out of favor before it got as big as python, to my knowledge, because of worse multithreaded performance in comparison (which I think has been fixed) and a bias towards unix systems over windows

        So it is a real perl replacement.

        There are so many ways to get the same basic logic loop done

        This also applies to C.

            C has for, while, do-while, goto and recursion.

            How exactly are rescue, inlined conditionals and optionals used for creating loops? Also Ruby’s for and while do different things, unlike for and while in C.
