The statement will be executed until x IS 5 THEN it terminates the loop by break, prints return 0.

Indiabix is not printed because the continue instruction will take the control back to the for loop until i<5, till then printf don't get executed. When if statement fails, else statement break is executed which will take the control out of the loop. Hence printf is not executed.

Since loop will execute until condition is true. After break it will not execute. Hence it will not print the IndiaBix.

When break is encountered in loop then the control directly jumps to the first statement after the loop.

Break and continue statements does not allow to execute printf statement.

The continue statement takes the control out of the loop for the next iteration and the break terminates the loop.

Because when ever the break statement given in loop.
The loop terminates and control get out from the loop.
The loop terminates and control get out from the loop.

Here when the loop start if x<5 it will continue but it won't print anything otherwise if x>5 it will take else statement and it will break. If it breaks there won't be any printing. So there is no printing of indiabix.

Here printf ("IndiaBIX") ; is unreachable code. Because break keyword is stop the working of the block.

Hi agi. No matter you take value of i=1 or something else only the value inside the loop will be executed. So take i=1 or 100 or 200 loop will work for i=-1.
