                    The While loop ends here!





                      THE INFINITE LOOP

                  If the condition given in a loop never becomes false, then the loop will never terminate and run

                  indefinitely. This type of loops is called an infinite loop.
                  Example:

                  while(1)

                      print("Hello")

                  Output: Hello will be printed infinite times.
                  To come out of the infinite loop, we can either close the program window or press Ctrl + C. This

                  will break the running of the program. In fact, at any time during the execution of a program in
                  Python, you can press the key combination Ctrl + C to stop running the program.

                      THE JUMP STATEMENTS


                  Sometimes, there is a situation when the control of the program needs to be transferred out
                  of the loop body, even if all the values of the iterations of the loop have not been completed.
                  For this purpose,  jumping statements are  used in Python.  Python  offers two  jumping
                  statements—break and continue, which are used within the loop.

                  The break Statement


                  The break is a keyword in Python which is used for bringing the program control out of the loop.
                  The break statement halts the execution of a loop and program flow switches to the statement
                  after the loop. A single break statement will break out of only one loop. The syntax of the break
                  statement is as follows:

                                                                                  A loop repeatedly executes a
                  #loop statement
                                                                                  block of code, just as a flock
                                                                                  of Starlings (birds) repeatedly
                      break
                                                                                     adjusts their formation.
