Multiple conditions on a while loop

[kavithapotnuru]

Hi All,

Can anyone help me how to give multiple conditions in a while loop in perl.

For example i have a while loop for which the value of a variable is A or B it should not enter in to the while loop.

Basically i need the condition in the while loop should contains "||". Is it possible?

If not can anyone suggest me an alternative

Thanks & Regards

unless ($var eq  'A' || $var eq 'B') {
   while(some condition) {
      do something
   }
}

u can give names to the loop and use them;;

eg:-

LOOP: foreach(@arr){
while($_=~/^#/) {
next LOOP;
}
}

Kavitha,

Your original premise is not entirely clear. However, maybe this is what you're talking about:

[CODE=perl]
while ($var ne 'A' && $var ne 'B') {
# do something
}
[/CODE]
