Foil 22 Java Language -- Control Flow III -- break and for loop

From Java Tutorial - Spring 1997 Part II: Java Language and Object-Oriented Concepts Peking Tutorial, Web Certificate -- Spring-Summer 1997. by Nancy J. McCracken,Geoffrey C. Fox
One can break out of (nested) for loops in fashion offered by Perl with different syntax
outer: // label
for( int j=0; j<10; j++) { /* Note j only defined in for loop */
/* select course j */
  • for( int i=0; i<15; i++) {
  • if(studentgrade[j][i] == 4.0) {
    • /* Celebrate */
    • break outer; // go to end of outer loop
  • }
  • }
}
/* break jumps to here out of loop labelled by outer */
