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 break command inside the IF statement will exit the FOR loop.

Answer 2

The break statement has no effect on if statements. It only works on switch, for, while and do loops. So in your example the break would terminate the for loop.
