Learn how to use the break statement to exit loops and switch cases in Java

Java Break Statement :

Whether the loop condition is true or false, the break statement is used to end a loop early. When a loop contains a break statement, the loop is instantly stopped, and program control shifts to the statement that follows the break.



/**
 * Java Break Example
 */
public class JavaExample {

    public static void main(String[] args) {
       
        for(int i=0;i<=10;i++){
            if (i==5){
                System.out.println("Loop Break Here: " +i);
                break;
            }
            System.out.println("Loop index : " +i);
        }
    }
   
}



Output:

Loop index : 0

Loop index : 1

Loop index : 2

Loop index : 3

Loop index : 4

Loop Break  Here: 5
