Summary

In summary,

  • break statement when encountered by JavaScript in a loop, the loop exits immediately without any other statements in the loop being executed.
  • continue statement prevents the execution of the current iteration when JavaScript finds a continuous statement in a loop and goes back to the beginning of the loop to begin the next iteration.
  • Nested loops are a type of loop that is made up of many loops. The most popular type of nested loop is one loop within another.
