Description needed
Groups:: Arrays

Syntax:: Syntax needed
Parameters:: array: Array - array to search in
: code: Code - code defining an element to find, processed element can be referenced within the code as _x
Return Value:: Return value needed

Example 1:: [unit1, unit2, unit3] findIf {not alive _x}; // return index of the first dead unit)
Example 2:: // two ways how to 'wait for all units to be dead':waitUntil { [unit1, unit2, unit3] findIf {alive _x} == -1 }; // fast, terminates as soon as it finds a living unitwaitUntil { {alive _x} count [unit1, unit2, unit3] == 0 }; // slow, always goes through all array elements
