Does "break" ignore if statements?

Just answer yes or no, I want it to ignore the if statements.

Dunno what you mean by ignore.

Your break is not inside any loop in the snippet you showed, so as far as I can tell it will do nothing or error.

More info:

If the program hits a break, it will jump to the line right after the tightest loop that contains the break.

for outer = 1, 3 do
  print("outer")
  for inner = 1, 5 do
    print(" inner")
    if inner == 2 then break end -- breaks out of the 'inner' loop but not the 'outer'
  end
end

Gives you:

outer
 inner
 inner
outer
 inner
 inner
outer
 inner
 inner

Note how the inner loop is broken after 2, but the outer loop keeps going.

I know mostly how break works, and it is inside of the loop but I just didn’t show it in the script above. I just wanna know will it ignore the “end” part of the if statement, so it will break out of every if statement no matter how many it is inside.

#4

As soon as it hits the break, it will immediately jump to the end of the loop it’s in.

Any statements following the break will not run.

for i = 1, 100 do
  print("before")
  if i == 3 then break end
  print("after")
end

before
after
before
after
before

The last after never prints.

#5

Okay so I guess that’s a yes?

What I’m asking is, will the break work like this?

for i = 0, 2, 1 do
	if this = that then
		if this = that then
			if this = that then
				if this = that then
					if this = that then
						if this = that then
							if this = that then
								break
							end
						end
					end
				end
			end
		end
	end
	--breaks here
end

Break won’t function here, it only functions within loops, and will bypass all if statements and only check if it’s in a loop. (Replied to your first message)
for example:

for i = 1, 10 do
    if i == 4 then
        break
    end
    print("No Way")
end

console:

No Way
No Way
No Way

It doesn’t matter if there is an if statement, it will ignore the if statement and break the loop.
and yes, that’d work. Because it transcends if statements and only looks at the loop it’s in.

#7

Ok I get your question, it ignores all the ends yes, the loop will end on Break, and ignore all the ends.
Sorry I didn’t understand your question at first
It’ll look like this:

for i = 0, 2, 1 do
	if this = that then
		if this = that then
			if this = that then
				if this = that then
					if this = that then
						if this = that then
							if this = that then
								break --Breaks here
							end
						end
					end
				end
			end
		end
	end
end
#8

I said just answer with a yes or no, please don’t respond telling me how break works, because I already know. The code I showed as an example is inside a loop (for i loop) and I just showed a small portion of it. I wanna know if break will work like this, and this is just an example:

for i = 0, 2, 1 do
	if this = that then
		if this = that then
			if this = that then
				if this = that then
					if this = that then
						if this = that then
							if this = that then
								break
							end
						end
					end
				end
			end
		end
	end
	--breaks here
end

Why not run that and see?

Yes. It jumps to the end. If you had statements in between all those ends they would be ignored.

for i = 1, 10 do
	print(">")
	if i == 1 then
		print("> a")
		if i == 1 then
			print("> b")
			if i == 1 then
				print("> c")
				break
				print("< c")
			end
			print("< b")
		end
		print("< a")
	end
	print("<")
end
print("done")

>
> a
> b
> c
done

When the break statement is encountered inside a loop, the loop is immediately terminated and the program control resumes at the next statement following the loop.

If you are using nested loops (i.e., one loop inside another loop), the break statement will stop execution of the innermost loop and start executing the next line of code after the block.
