Does writing break; in inner loop only comes out of inner loop or both the loops ??

Answer 1

Aman Jain , I think break applied to the inner loop will stop it , but the outer loop still remains active.

Answer 2

Try it for yourself:

#include <stdio.h>

int main() {
int i = 1, j;
while (i <= 5)
{
printf("\ni = %d", i);
j = 1;
while (j <= 5)
{
j++;
printf("\nj = %d", j);
if (j == 2)
{
break;
}
}
i++;
}
return 0;
}

Answer 3

Break statement only breaks the innermost loop.
