Control statement 1.3 (Jump statement)

 Jump Statements

Jump statements are used to control the flow of program

and transfer the flow of program one point to another point.

• break statement 
• continue statement
• return

1. break statement : 

The break statement is used to terminate the current loop or switch statement and transfer control to another point of the program. It's often used to exit a loop prematurely when a certain condition is met.

# Example : 

 public static void main(String[] args) {

        for (int i = 1; i <= 10; i++) {

            if (i == 5) {

                break;

                }

                System.out.println(i);

                }

            }

Output // 1, 2, 3, 4

2. continue statement : 

The continue statement is used to skip the rest of the current iteration and move to the next iteration of a loop.

for (int i = 1; i <= 5; i++) {

            if (i == 3) {

                continue;

                }

                System.out.println(i);

            }

Output // 1, 2, 3, 4

3. return : 

The return statement is used to exit a method and transfers control back to the caller along with the specified value.

public int add(int a, int b) {

    int sum = a + b;

    return sum;

}
