Java Break Lable
In Java, break statement is used in two ways as labeled
and unlabeled. break is commonly used as unlabeled. Labeled break statement is
used for terminating nested loops. Nested loops are loops defined inside other
loops in which the topper most loop
is define under a label with any String value. In the example a label String
value 'weisz' is defined above the outer most loop while. In the code when
if condition becomes true the break statement terminates the while loop under
the label weisz.
Code for Break Labels in Java
public class Java_Break_lable { public static void main(String args[]) { int modulo = 10, i = 0,j = 0; weisz: while(i < modulo){ for(;;i++){ for(;j < i;j++) System.out.println("modulo : " + modulo + "\t\ti : " + i); if (i == modulo) break weisz; else { modulo--; continue; } } } System.out.println("\nValue at which the nested loops defined under label 'weisz' is : " + modulo); } } |
