The index of all my past little wonders posts can be found here. When I started the “Little Wonders” series, I really wanted…

Hi.
I'm sure you all know of games like Dwarf Fortress - massive, procedural generated wilderness and land. Something like this, taken from this very useful article.
However, I was wondering how I could apply this to a much larger scale; the scale of Minecraft comes to mind (isn't that something…

I'm embarrassed that I'm asking this question, but here I go:
Suppose you have the following function foo. When I'm running a for loop, I'd like it to skip the remainder of foo when foo initially returns the value of 0. However, break doesn't work when it's inside a function.

I had learnt by reading your great answers here, that it is not good practice deleting items from within a foreach loop, as it is (and I quote) "Sawing off the branch you're sitting on".
My code currently removes the text from the dropdownlist, but the actual item remains (just without text displayed)…
