Why is Jason using retry inside a loop?

animals = %w(dog cat horse goat snake frog)
count = 0

for animal in animals
    puts "the current animal is #{animal}"
    break if count == 10
    count += 1
    retry if animal == 'horse'
end 

First it does not work.

loops-11.5.rb:5: Invalid retry loops-11.5.rb: compile error (SyntaxError)

I also read on stackoverflow that, retry is for exceptions, not loops.

Along with this code, why would he put "retry if animal == 'horse' at the bottom. Doesn't it make more sense for it to be at the top?

I also just read in "The Ruby Way" The keyword retry is used in two contexts: in the context of an iterator and in the context of a begin/end blog (exception handling). Within the body of any iterator (or for loop) it will force the iterator to restart, reevaluating any arguments passed to the iterator. Not that it will not work for loops in general (while and until).
