Jonathan Matthews<p>I only learned properly a couple of weeks back about how elegant <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/CUE" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>CUE</span></a>&#39;s multi-for-loop construct is!</p><p>Because in <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/ConfigMgmt" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>ConfigMgmt</span></a> land we&#39;re /so/ often dealing with spiky, nested objects, the nested &quot;for&quot; loop has a lovely indent-saving form: here, the loop starting on L37 incorporates 3 for elements, 1 &quot;if&quot; guard, &amp; 1 additional temporary allocation (&quot;let&quot;), whilst letting me iterate over the /innermost/ elements of a (resource|data).&lt;level1&gt;.&lt;level2&gt; shaped struct 🙂</p><p><a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/cuelang" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>cuelang</span></a> is genuinely awesome!</p>
