1 Answer

0 votes
for ($i = 1; $i <= 6; $i++) {
    echo "Outer loop (i): $i\n";
    for ($j = 1; $j <= 3; $j++) {
        echo "  Inner loop (j): $j\n";
        if ($i === 3) {
            echo "    Breaking out of both loops!\n";
            break 2; // Break out of 2 levels: the inner and the outer loop
        }
    }
    echo "This line will only be reached if the inner loop completes normally.\n";
}

echo "Program execution continues after both loops.\n";



/*
run:

Outer loop (i): 1
  Inner loop (j): 1
  Inner loop (j): 2
  Inner loop (j): 3
This line will only be reached if the inner loop completes normally.
Outer loop (i): 2
  Inner loop (j): 1
  Inner loop (j): 2
  Inner loop (j): 3
This line will only be reached if the inner loop completes normally.
Outer loop (i): 3
  Inner loop (j): 1
    Breaking out of both loops!
Program execution continues after both loops.
