BREAK AND CONTINUE STATEMENTS
Break Statement
Sometimes, you might need to stop the loop from within its body. Use the break
statement within loops to pass control to the first statement following the innermost
loop (for, while, or do).
For example:
Lcd_Out(1, 1, "No card inserted")
' Wait for CF card to be plugged; refresh every second
while true
if Cf_Detect() = 1 then
break
end if
Delay_ms(1000)
wend
' Now we can work with CF card ...
Lcd_Out(1, 1, "Card detected ")
Continue Statement
You can use the continue statement within loops to “skip the cycle”:
- continue statement in the for loop moves program counter to the line with
keyword for
-
continue statement in the while loop moves program counter to the line with loop
condition (top of the loop),
-
continue statement in the do loop moves program counter to the line with loop
condition (bottom of the loop).
