Does a break leave just the try/catch or the surrounding loop?

Question

If I have a try ... catch block inside a while loop, and there#s a break inside the catch, does program execution leave t

Answer 1

Yes, it will. Easiest way to find out is to try it.

public static void main(String[] args) {
        int i=0;
        while (i<10) {
            System.out.println(i);
            try {
                if(i ==7){
                    throw new Exception();
                }
                i++;
            } catch (Exception e) {
                break;
            }
        }
        System.out.println("out of loop");
    }

It will print

0
1
2
3
4
5
6
7
out of loop

The output starts with 0.
