Break (out of loop)

• The break statement causes an immediate exit from the innermost while, do while, for, and switch statements.

• Example:

for(i = 1, i <= 10; i++) {

printf("%d\n", i);

if (i == 3)

break;

printf("bottom of loop\n");

}

printf("out of loop\n");

The output is

1

bottom of loop

2

bottom of loop

3

out of loop
