Break Statement in C#

In this post I will show you the use of break statement in C#.

Break statement,  as the name suggests, is used to stop the code execution at a specified position in the program.

Let us check this out with the help of an example. Let us create a Console Application in Visual Studio. Write the following code in the application.

using System;
usingSystem.Collections.Generic;
usingSystem.Linq;
usingSystem.Text;
usingSystem.Threading.Tasks;
namespaceBreakStatement
{
    class Program
    {
        static void Main(string[] args)
        {
            for (inti = 0; i < 6; i++)
            {
                Console.WriteLine(i.ToString());
                if (i == 4)
                    break;
            }
            Console.WriteLine("The execution has stopped!!");
            Console.ReadLine();
        }
    }
}

Let us check the output of the program.



Well as we can see "5" is not included in the output because we specified the break statement in the code.
