Different Ways of Using Break Statement in Java :

1.Break Statement used in For Loop

break statement will take control out of the loop.

All the statements will gets executed i.e statement 1 , statement 2
. when it encountersbreak statement it will break
loop and take control outside the loop.

In the above diagram break statement will take control outside

the loop . i.e, it will execute OutsideStatement1 next to break.

2.Break Statement used in While Loop

In this example we have written break statement inside while

loop.

Whenever this statement executes then break will move control

outside the while loop.

3.Break Statement used in While Loop

In do while it executes similarly as that of for and while loop.

break statement terminates do while loop.
