It seems I have found another thing to add to my [Javascript extras extension](https://forum.makecode.com/t/making-an-extension-for-every-javascript-exclusive-feature-i-can-think-of/36766)  
If there is an existing extension for this, I don’t know about it, but it’s a feature in javaScript so I’ll figure out how to turn it into blocks. I think I’ll make this one its own extension though, that just comes with the javaScript extras extension.  
Here’s what I can do in javaScript:
