The Command.. break; in Java what if.?

Question

What if we have an if statement inside a for loop, would it stop the loop or the if condition...

Example:

for (int i = 0; i < array.length; i++) {
           


        

Answer 1

The selected answer is almost right. if break statement be mixed by label then it can be used in if statement without needing to be in a loop. The following code is completely valid, compiles and runs.

public class Test {
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        int i=0;
        label:if(i>2){
            break label;
        }               
    }
}

However if we remove the label, it fails to compile.
