The break Statement

The break statement

break identifieropt;

terminates execution of while, do, for, case, and alt statements. Execution of break with no identifier transfers control to the statement after the innermost while, do, for, case, or alt statement in which it appears as a substatement. Execution of break with an identifier transfers control to the next statement after the unique enclosing while, do, for, case, or alt labelled with that identifier.
