JUMPING STATEMENTS

There are two jump statements to be used


within loops to jump out of loop iterations.
• break
• continue
break
 A break statement skips the rest of the loop
and jumps over to the statement following the
loop
 A break statement terminates the very loop it
lies within
 Execution resumes at the statement
immediately following the body of the
terminated statement.
Example for break
for val in "string":
if val == "i":
break
print(val)
print("The end")
output:
s
t
r
The end
var = 10
while var > 0:
print (“Current variable value :”, var)
var = var -1
if var == 5:
break
print ("Good bye!“)
OUTPUT:
Current variable value : 10
Current variable value : 9
Current variable value : 8
Current variable value : 7
Current variable value : 6
Good bye!
a=2
while True:
print(a)
a=a*2
if a>100:
break
For purposely created infinite loops, there must be
a provision to reach break statement from within
body of the loop so that loop can be terminated.
Continue
 The continue statement forces the next
iteration of the loop to take place , skipping
any code in between.
 The continue statement is used to skip the rest
of the code inside a loop for the current
iteration only.
 Loop does not terminate but continues on
with the next iteration.
Example for continue
for val in "string":
if val == "i":
continue
print(val)
print("The end")
OUTPUT:
s
t
r
n
g
The end
print("Break statement Output")
for i in range(1,11):
if i%3==0:
break
else:
print(i)
print("Continue statement output")
for i in range(1,11):
if i %3==0:
continue
else:
print(i)
OUTPUT
Break statement Output
1
2
Continue statement output
1
2
4
5
7
8
10
LOOP ELSE STATEMENT
 Python allows the else keyword to be used
with the for and while loops too.
 The else block appears after the body of
the loop.
 The statements in the else block will be
executed after all iterations are completed.
 The program exits the loop only after
the else block is executed.
Example
for a in range(1,4):
print("element is",end=" ")
print(a)
else:
print("Ending loop")
output:
element is 1
element is 2
element is 3
Ending loop
