Combining different control flow blocks

As you might have been able to guess, we can combine any of the decision-making tools such as if, else, and switch within our while loops, and the rest of the loops too. Take a look at the following example:

int x = 0;
int tooBig = 10;
while(true){
     x++; // I am going to get mighty big!
     if(x == tooBig){
          break;
     } // No you're not
     
     // code reaches here only until x = 10
}

It would be simple to go on for many more pages demonstrating the versatility of control flow structures, but at some point, we want to get back to finishing the game.

Now that we are confident with if and else, let's have a look at one more concept to do with loops.

Using the continue keyword

The continue keyword acts in a similar way to break,...
