2.5 break

break <levels>


The 'break' command stops the execution of the current block structure and advances to the next command following the block structure. With <levels> equal to 1 only the current block structure is interrupted, with any higher number the <levels> innermost block structures are interrupted. The 'break' command can be used only inside a block structure.
