Inspectopedia 2025.2 Help

Put local function after 'return' or 'continue'

Move a local function to the end of its containing scope and separate it from executable code with explicit 'return', 'continue', or 'yield break'. This can improve code readability because executable code will be clearly separated from helper functions that are not executed at their declaration sites.
