Since we use break statement it automatically comes out of the else loop, no matter whether it satisfies if condition or not,

Here look at the program x is < 5, the if condition is satisfied and continue is encountered so the loop continue execution without executing the following statements. and when the value of x becomes 5, break is encountered and the control is transferred outside the loop. So 'IndiaBix' will not be printed even once.

When the loop is start from -1 to 10 ,firstly check the if condition and follow the continue statement and from -1 to 5 condition is satisfied ,then 6 condition is satisfied and else statement go to break and terminate the loop
so that nothing will be print
so that nothing will be print

First you know that how to work Break and Continue statement :.
If you use 'continue' statement then that after particular condition loop will be continue in same loop and another break statement, if you use 'break' statement then terminate of that loop and go to out of loop and program will be exit.
So in this program, println ("IndiaBix") ; is used after break statement so this program is terminated. So no display any output.
If you use 'continue' statement then that after particular condition loop will be continue in same loop and another break statement, if you use 'break' statement then terminate of that loop and go to out of loop and program will be exit.
So in this program, println ("IndiaBix") ; is used after break statement so this program is terminated. So no display any output.

The value of X is -1 so again and again to execute the loop to increase the value in X is minus value so infinte times to execute the loop.
