The break and
continue Statements
•The break statement causes an immediate exit from the innermost switch, while, do-while, or for statement in which it appears. •If break is in a loop that is nested inside another loop, control exits the inner loop but not the other. •A continue statement terminates only the current iteration of a loop (not the whole loop).
