Perl.
It also has a suffix syntax so you can write:
next unless condition;
last if condition;
next and last are the Perl equivalents to continue and break, respectively. In
the post-statement position, the parentheses are also optional.
For the record, it also has an until keyword to go along with while, which
does the same that unless does to if: it's the opposite condition. That is, it
repeats the loop until the condition becomes true.
