°	Stop a loop with 'break'

Like C and Python, Yanaconda supports the 'break' statement to stop a loop. In addition, it is possible to specify the number of nested loops to stop right after the 'break'.


i = 0
while 1
  Print (i)
  if i==5
    break
  i = i+1

0
1
2
3
4
5


for i=1 to 3
  for j=10 to 15
    Print (i)-(j)
    if j==12
      break 2

1-10
1-11
1-12
