Ruby program to demonstrate the 'break' statement with 'while', 'until', and 'for' loops

Ruby Example: Write a program to demonstrate the 'break' statement with 'while', 'until', and 'for' loops.
Submitted by Nidhi, on December 20, 2021

Problem Solution:

In this program, we will use the "break" statement with "while", "until", and "for" loops to terminate the loop when the given if statement is true.

Program/Source Code:

The source code to demonstrate the "break" statement with "while", "until", and "for" loops is given below. The given program is compiled and executed successfully.

# Ruby program to demonstrate the "break" statement 
# with "while", "until", and "for" loops

puts "While Loop:";
cnt=1;
while cnt<=10
    print cnt," ";
    if cnt==5
        break;
    end
    cnt=cnt+1;
end
puts;
    
puts "Until Loop:";
cnt=1;
until cnt==11
    print cnt," ";
    if cnt==5
        break;
    end
    cnt=cnt+1;
end
puts;

puts "For Loop:";    
for cnt in 1..11 do   
    print cnt," ";
    if cnt==5
        break;
    end
end

Output:

While Loop:
1 2 3 4 5 
Until Loop:
1 2 3 4 5 
For Loop:
1 2 3 4 5

Explanation:

In the above program, we used the break statement with "while", "until", and "for" loop to terminate the loop when the value of the cnt variable is equal to 5.
