use of break:
Normally break actually use jump out of a statement or a loop. let's see a example below:
<?php
for ($x = 0; $x < 5; $x++) {
if ($x == 3) {
break;
}
echo "$x <br>";
}
?>
for ($x = 0; $x < 5; $x++) {
if ($x == 3) {
break;
}
echo "$x <br>";
}
?>
this example result will be 0,1,2 cause when the value is equal to 3 it actually jump out of the loop.
use of continue:
Continue actually use for break or skip specific itearation and then continue the rest of the loop. let's see a example below:
<?php
for ($x = 0; $x < 5; $x++) {
if ($x == 3) {
continue;
}
echo "$x <br>";
}
?>
for ($x = 0; $x < 5; $x++) {
if ($x == 3) {
continue;
}
echo "$x <br>";
}
?>
this example result will be 0,1,2,4 cause when the value is equal to 3 it actually skip it and continue rest of the loop.
