Statements affecting flow control
Till now we have seen different conditional constructs and loop construct such as if...else, while, for, switch and do statements. Now,we will study break, continue and exit statements which are used to alter the normal flow of program. A loop performs a set of repetitive tasks until the conditional-expression becomes false, but sometimes it is desirable to skip some action statements inside the loop or terminate the loop immediately without checking the conditional-expression. In such cases, break and continue statements are used.
Break usage
The breakstatement is used to terminate the innermost while, do...while, or for loop that encloses it. The break statement is also used to break out of switch statement. Itis meaningful if used inside a loopor with a switch statement because, outside the body of a loop or switch, it has no meaning.All loop constructs have their termination conditional-expression, however sometimes it is possible that you achieve your...
