#### 6.1.7.1 Control Transfer Clauses

The `named` construct establishes a name for an implicit block surrounding the

entire

loop so that the return-from special operator can be used to return values from or to exit loop. Only one name per loop form can be assigned. If used, the `named` construct must be the first clause in the loop expression.

The `return` construct takes one form. Any values returned by the form are immediately returned by the loop form.

This construct is similar to the return-from special operator and the return macro. The `return` construct

does not execute any `finally` clause that

the loop form

is given.
