Modern JavaScript from the Beginning - Second Edition - Break and Continue

The video tutorial covers the use of break and continue statements in programming loops. It explains how the break statement is used to exit a loop when a specific condition is met, using an example where the loop stops at 15. The continue statement is introduced as a way to skip the current iteration and proceed to the next one, demonstrated with an example of skipping the 13th iteration. The tutorial provides practical examples and explanations to help understand these concepts.

What is the primary function of a 'break' statement in a loop?

• To skip the current iteration and move to the next

• To exit the loop entirely when a condition is met

• To pause the loop temporarily

• To restart the loop from the beginning

In the given example, at what value does the loop terminate using the 'break' statement?

• 20

• 15

• 10

• 25

What does the 'continue' statement do in a loop?

• Pauses the loop temporarily

• Skips the rest of the code in the current iteration

• Exits the loop entirely

• Restarts the loop from the beginning

In the example provided, which floor number is skipped using the 'continue' statement?

• 15

• 13

• 12

• 14

How do 'break' and 'continue' statements differ in their effect on loop execution?

• 'Break' skips the current iteration, while 'continue' exits the loop

• 'Break' pauses the loop, while 'continue' restarts it

• 'Break' and 'continue' both exit the loop

• 'Break' exits the loop, while 'continue' skips to the next iteration
