C# .net Program Break Keyword Example

• This C# .net Program is about use Break Keyword.
• Break Keyword is used to break the flow of program and throw the control outside the loop or conditional statement.
• Break keyword will bring the control out of current loop in which it is written not out of all the loops.
• Break Keyword in c# can be used with
• For Loop
• Swith Case
• While Loop
• Do While Loop
• If Condition
• If Else Condition

C# Program Logic:

• In below c# program we have used while loop to show use of break keyword
• The initial condition of while loop is set to true
• The integer variable num is initially set to zero and incremented by 1 inside the while loop
• Inside the while loop we have used if condition to check when the break statement should be executed.
• In this program when the num variable is equals to 5 then the break statement is executed and controls comes out of while loop

Break Keyword C# Program

using System.Text;

namespace BreakProgram
{
    class Program
    {
        static void Main()
        {
            int num = 0;
            while (true)
            {
                //Increment the number by 1
                num++;
                Console.WriteLine(num);
                //if num is 5 , break the loop
                if (num == 5)
                {

            Console.ReadLine();
        }
