I can't find any mention of that. (When things get deprecated, that's usually documented/announced somehow, no?) > You'll note it's disappeared from the documentation. Yup. Confused the hell out of me. $break is still in the source code without any mention of deprecation. >> What are we supposed to use instead? > Enumerable has `all`, which is very like ECMAScript5's `every` in that > it stops when you return `false` out of the callback (but ECMAScript5 > defines that the callback gets all three arguments; I don't think > Enumerable makes that guarantee).
