break, continue

Assalamu Alaikum. Hope, you all are well by the grace of almighty ALLAH. Today we learn about the break and continue statement.

Break:

The break statement will immediately jump to the end of the current block of code. To exit a loop we can use the break statement any time. This can be very useful if we want to stop running a loop because a condition has been met other than the loop end condition. Take a look at the following example:

In the example above, the for loop will run , as long i is smaller than 10.In the for loop there is an if statement  that states that if i equals six the for loop must stop(break).

Continue:

The continue statement will skip the rest of the code in the current loop block and return to the evaluation part of the loop. Take a look at the example below:

In the example above, we skip the number five in our countdown.

Take a look at another example.

In the example above the printf function is never called because of the "continue".

Thank you all..:)
