Catch and throw dont have to be directly in the same scope

# throw works from methods called from within a catch block: def generate_random_number_except_123   x = rand(1000)   throw :finish if x == 123 end catch(:finish) do   1000.times { generate_random_number_except_123 }   puts "Generated 1000 random numbers without generating 123!" end
