Labeled Statement block in Java?

Question

I was browsing through some of the base Java objects when I found a section of code surrounded by a scan: {} block. The following code is from the toLowerCase()

Answer 1

You can set a label to break / or continue from within multiple loops deep.

Example

 outer:
 for(int i=...){
   for(int j=..){
     ...
     break outer; // leaves both loops   

   } 

 }
