[Q#23550985][A#23551020] How to break a while loop from an if condition inside the while loop?

https://stackoverflow.com/q/23550985

I want to break a while loop of the format below which has an if statement. If that if statement is true, the while loop also must break. Any help would be appreciated.

if is not a loop. Simply call break;. Contrived example: If you were actually using nested loops, you would be able to use labels.

public static void main(String[] args) {
  int i = 0;
  while (i++ < 10) {
    if (i == 5) break;
  }
  System.out.println(i); //prints 5
}

  public static int breakWhileLoop() {
    int i = 0;
    while (i++ < 10) {
      if (i == 5) {
        break;
      }
    }
    //System.out.println(i); //prints 5
    return i;
  }
