JUMP STATEMENTS
These statements are used to jump out of the loop iterations even if the condition has not become
false. They alter the flow of control unconditionally. The jump statements defined in Python are
break and continue.
THE break STATEMENT
The break statement is used for exiting the program control out of the loop. The break statement
stops the execution of the loop and program flow continues to the statement after the loop. It is
mostly used when we need to exit a loop prematurely before the loop condition becomes false.
