MOO Language Statements

Statements are MOO constructs that, in contrast to expressions, perform some useful, non-value-producing operation. For example, there are several kinds of statements, called `looping constructs', that repeatedly perform some set of operations. Fortunately, there are many fewer kinds of statements in MOO than there are kinds of expressions.

• Statement Errors: Errors While Executing Statements
• Simple Statements: Simple Statements
• Conditionals: Statements for Testing Conditions
• Iteration: Statements for Looping
• Breaking: Terminating One or All Iterations of a Loop
• Returning: Returning a Value from a Verb
• Handling Errors: Handling Errors in Statements
• Finally: Cleaning Up After Errors
• Forking: Executing Statements at a Later Time
