Super break

Question

When I write a nested loop how can I break the outer loop by a condition in the inner loop for example:
for(int i=0;i<5;i++)
{
for(int j=1;j<5;j++)
if(i==j&&j>3)
/*
a keyword that break the outer loop
*/
}
Is there any keyword like that in java or c?

Answer 1

If it is applicable, you can put nested loops in separate method, and than when conditions are met, use return for breakOut from that method. Look at the solution here:

Answer 2

I'd prefer to use auxiliary flags for each level of nesting.

A simple example:

bool f1 = false,
f2 = false;

while ( !f1 ) {
while ( !f2 ) {
while ( true ) {
// do stuff...

if ( some condition met ) {
f1 = true;
f2 = true;
break;
}
}
}
}

//...

Goto is a very interesting statement!
Reminds me of the big plate of spaghetti! 8D

Amazing idea mr. valda I forgot it

Thanks to all for helping

Answer 5

int check = 1
for (...) {
for (...) {
if (breaking_condition) {
check = 0;
break;
}
}
if (!check)
break;
}

Answer 6

Java can break to labels:

label:
for... {
for... {
if(...) break label;
}
}
// execution continues here

In C this is one case where 'goto' is used:
for... {
for... {
if(...) goto end;
}
}
end:

Answer 7

When the goto-target is still in the same screen, I can't really see the harm (fusilli, more like ^^).
