How to end a loop in python

The break statement and continue statement in python

break

break is Terminate this loop. For example, if you have many while loops and you write a break in one of the while loops, if the conditions are met, the loop in this while will only be terminated, and the program will jump to the previous while loop and continue going down.

Take a simple for loop as an example

for i in range(10):
  print("-----%d-----" %i)
  for j in range(10):
    if j > 5:
      break
    print(j)

When j>5 is encountered here, the second level for will not loop and continue to jump to the previous level loop

continue

continue is when the loop reaches this point, perform certain operations here in continue. After the execution is completed, continue to loop what needs to be done in this layer of loop that meets the conditions. It will not Terminate this level of loop

Modify the above example

for i in range(10):
  print("-----%d-----" %i)
  for j in range(10):
    if j > 5 and j <= 8:
      print("我是continue特殊")
      continue
    print(j)

To end a loop, you can also use exit(), which directly terminates the program and the loop ends naturally.
