break Keyword

numbers = [0, 254, 2, -1, 3]

for num in numbers:
  if (num < 0):
    print("Negative number detected!")
    break
  print(num)
  
# 0
# 254
# 2
# Negative number detected!

In a loop, the break keyword escapes the loop, regardless of the iteration number. Once break executes, the program will continue to execute after the loop.

In this example, the output would be:

  • 0
  • 254
  • 2
  • Negative number detected!
