C – break statement

C – break statement
1. It is used to come out of the loop instantly.
When a break statement is encountered inside a
loop, the control directly comes out of loop and
the loop gets terminated. It is used with if
statement, whenever used inside loop.
2. This can also be used in switch case control
structure. Whenever it is encountered in switch-
case block, the control comes out of the switch-
case(see the example below).
Flow diagram of break statement
Example
#include <stdio.h>
int main()
{
int num =0;
while(num<=100)
{
printf("value of variable num is: %d\n", num);
if (num==2)
{
break;
}
num++;
}
printf("Out of while-loop");
return 0;
}
Example
#include <stdio.h>
int main()
{
int var;
for (var =100; var>=10; var --)
{
printf("var: %d\n", var);
if (var==99)
{
break;
}
}
printf("Out of for-loop");
return 0;
}
Example
#include <stdio.h>
int main()
{
int num;
printf("Enter value of num:");
scanf("%d",&num);
switch (num)
{
case 1:
printf("You have entered value 1\n");
break;
case 2:
printf("You have entered value 2\n");
break;
case 3:
printf("You have entered value 3\n");
break;
default:
printf("Input value is other than 1,2 & 3 ");
}
return 0;
}
