C Break for loop

In this section, you will learn how to use break statement in a for loop.
The break statement terminates the execution of the enclosing
loop or conditional statement. In a for loop statement, the break
statement can stop the counting when a given condition becomes true. You can see
in the given example that the program is supposed to count the numbers from 1 to
20 using for loop. As per the condition defined the break statement stop the
execution of the loop as soon as it detects the number 5 .
Here is the code:
BREAKFor.C
#include <stdio.h>
#include <conio.h>
void main() {
clrscr();
int n;
for (n=1; n<20; n++) {
printf("%d\n", n);
getch();
if (n==5)
break;
}
}
|
Output will be displayed as:
BREAKST.EXE

As the number 5 comes, the execution of the loop gets terminated.
