Break Statement Example -

Let's look at a simple example of a break statement that is used inside a loop.

#include <iostream>   
using namespace std;  
int main() {  
    for (int i = 1; i <= 10; i++)    
    {    
        if (i == 5)  
        {
            break;  
        }    
        cout<<i<<"\n";   
    }    
}  

Output -

1

Break Statement with Inner Loop 

The break statement breaks the inner loop only when you use the break statement inside the inner loop.

Let's look at example code -

#include<iostream>  
using namespace std;  
int main()  
{  
    for(int i=1;i<=3;i++){        
        for(int j=1;j<=3;j++){        
            if(i==2&&j==2){        
                break;        
             }        
            cout<<i<<" "<<j<<"\n";             
        }        
    }    
} 

Output -

1 1
1 2
2 1
1 3
3 1
3 3
