C Break and Continue
Break Statement
The break statement is utilized to escape the loop within which it occurs. The break statement is applied within loops or switch statements within C programming.
Example:
#include
<stdio.h>
int
main
()
{
int i;
for
(i = 0; i < 10; i++)
{
if
(i == 6)
{
break;
}
printf
("%d", i);
}
return
0;
}
Output:
0 1 2 3 4 5
Continue Statement
The continue statement skips the current iteration of the loop and moves to the next iteration.
Example:
#include
<stdio.h>
int
main
()
{
int i,j;
for
(i = 1; i <= 2; i++)
{
for
(j = 1; j <= 2; j++)
{
if
(i == j)
continue;
printf
("%d%d", i,j);
}
}
return
0;
}
Output:
1 2 2 1
