Java Break Statement ​

The Java break statement is used to break loop or switch statement. It breaks the current flow of the program at specified condition. In case of inner loop, it breaks only inner loop.

We can use Java break statement in all types of loops such as for loop, while loop and do-while loop.

Java Break Statement Example ​

java
public class JavaBreakExample {
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        for (int i = 1; i <= 10; i++) {
            if (i == 5) {
                break;
            }
            System.out.println(i);
        }
    }
}
public class JavaBreakExample {
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        for (int i = 1; i <= 10; i++) {
            if (i == 5) {
                break;
            }
            System.out.println(i);
        }
    }
}

Java Break Statement in While Loop ​

java
public class JavaBreakExample2 {
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        int i = 1;
        while (i <= 10) {
            if (i == 5) {
                i++;
                break;
            }
            System.out.println(i);
            i++;
        }
    }
}
public class JavaBreakExample2 {
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        int i = 1;
        while (i <= 10) {
            if (i == 5) {
                i++;
                break;
            }
            System.out.println(i);
            i++;
        }
    }
}

Java Break Statement in do-while Loop ​

java
public class JavaBreakExample3 {
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        int i = 1;
        do {
            if (i == 5) {
                i++;
                break;
            }
            System.out.println(i);
            i++;
        } while (i <= 10);
    }
}
public class JavaBreakExample3 {
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        int i = 1;
        do {
            if (i == 5) {
                i++;
                break;
            }
            System.out.println(i);
            i++;
        } while (i <= 10);
    }
}

Java Break Statement in Nested Loop ​

java
public class JavaBreakExample4 {
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        aa:
        for (int i = 1; i <= 3; i++) {
            bb:
            for (int j = 1; j <= 3; j++) {
                if (i == 2 && j == 2) {
                    break aa;
                }
                System.out.println(i + " " + j);
            }
        }
    }
}
public class JavaBreakExample4 {
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        aa:
        for (int i = 1; i <= 3; i++) {
            bb:
            for (int j = 1; j <= 3; j++) {
                if (i == 2 && j == 2) {
                    break aa;
                }
                System.out.println(i + " " + j);
            }
        }
    }
}

    public static void main(String[] args) {
        int number = 20;
        switch (number) {
            case 10:
                System.out.println("10");
                break;
            case 20:
                System.out.println("20");
                break;
            case 30:
                System.out.println("30");
                break;
            default:
                System.out.println("Not in 10, 20 or 30");
        }
    }
}
public class JavaBreakExample5 {
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        int number = 20;
        switch (number) {
            case 10:
                System.out.println("10");
                break;
            case 20:
                System.out.println("20");
                break;
            case 30:
                System.out.println("30");
                break;
            default:
