<p>Blocks that define functions and deferred modifiers can include more than one body, separated by semicolons <code><span class='Value'>;</span></code>. The body used for a particular evaluation is chosen based on the arguments the the block. One special case applies when there are exactly two bodies either without headers or with labels only: in this case, the first applies when there is one argument and the second when there are two.</p>

</pre>
<p>This is the main drawback of predicates relative to guards in APL dfns (also written with <code><span class='Value'>?</span></code>), while the advantage is that it allows multiple expressions, or extra conditions, after a <code><span class='Value'>?</span></code>. It's not how I would have designed it if I just wanted to make a syntax for if statements, but it's a natural fit for the header system.</p>

-<p>The glyph <code><span class='Gets'>β†’</span></code> indicates an early return from a block. It must be preceded either by one of the self-reference special names <code><span class='Function'>π•Š</span></code> or <code><span class='Value'>𝕣</span></code> or by an internal name for a containing block. The combination of name and return tokenβ€”like <code><span class='Function'>F</span><span class='Gets'>β†’</span></code>, let's sayβ€”is a function that returns from the current instance of the indicated block. If that instance has already returned, then it instead results in an error.</p>

-<p>In a <code><span class='Function'>While</span></code> or <code><span class='Function'>For</span></code> loop, <a href="block.html#returns">returns</a> can be used for either the break or the continue statement (or, for that matter, a multiline break) if available. Returning from the main body, either with <code><span class='Function'>π•Š</span><span class='Gets'>β†’</span></code> or a labelled return, is a functional version of a continue statement. To escape from the loop as a whole, it should be wrapped in a labelled immediate block. Returning from that block using its label breaks the loop. For example, the following loop</p>
