The Break Statement

The break statement is used to exit a loop early, breaking out of the enclosing curly braces. It can be used to jump out of a loop, breaking the loop and continuing execution of code after the loop. An example shows using a break statement in a while loop to stop iterating when the counter reaches 5.

The break Statement:

The break statement, which was briefly introduced with the switch statement, is used to exit a loop
early, breaking out of the enclosing curly braces

The break statement can also be used to jump out of a loop.  

The break statement breaks the loop and continues executing the code after the loop (if any)

<head><title></title>
<script language="javascript">
var i=1
document.write("Implementation of break statement <br>")
while (i<10)
{
document.write(i+" ")
if(i==5)
{
break
}
i=i+1
}
</script>
</head>
<body>
