Objective C Tutorial - Objective C break Statement

break statement terminates the loop or switch statement and transfers execution to the statement immediately following the loop or switch.

Example

#import <Foundation/Foundation.h>
 
int main ()
{
   /* local variable definition */
   int a = 10;

   /* while loop execution */
   while( a < 20 )
   {
      NSLog(@"value of a: %d\n", a);
      a++;
      if( a > 15)
      {
         /* terminate the loop using break statement */
          break;
      }
   }
 
   return 0;
}

The code above generates the following result.

break out of for

#import <Foundation/Foundation.h>
 
int main ()
{
  int i;
    for (i = 0; i < 5; i++)
    {
        NSLog (@"The value of i = %i", i);
        if (i == 2)
        {
            break;
        }
    }  
 
   return 0;
}

The code above generates the following result.
