Sweet. But not wnat someone already offered?:
(loop repeat 10
when (foo)
collect it)
As for the use of as, C'ers flame over placing braces in an if statement
-- has there ever been a Lisp flamewar over for vs. as?
If not, is it possible there is a limit to our collective Usenet idiocy?
I feel we are on the verge of an im****tant result.
Do you have a rationale for preferring as over for? I can guess at one
but do not want to compromise the research.
Do you use for with in and as with = or always go with as? If so, then
likewise with for and not as with on, across, over, below, and under?
