# JavaScript Break and Continue

● The Break Statement

The break statement can be used to jump out of a loop.
The break statement breaks the loop and continues executing the code after the loop.

● The Continue Statement

The continue statement breaks one iteration ( in the loop ), if a specified condition occurs, and continues with the next iteration in the loop.

● JavaScript Labels

To label JavaScript statements Programmer precede the statements with a label name and a colon.
The break and the continue statements are the only JSP statements that can "jump out of" a code block.
The continue statement ( with or without a label reference) can only be used to skip one loop iteration.
The break statement, without a label reference, can only be used to jump out of a loop or switch.
With a label reference, the break statement can be used to jump out of any code block.
