Adarsh Srivastava here is solution. for i in range(0,6): for z in range(0,6): if(z==2): break #break inner loop. else: print(z) if(i==2): break #break outer loop.

var = False while '''condition''': #do smth while '''condition''': #do smth if '''you need to break the loop''': var = True break if var: #or 'if var == True', no difference break

✅ refactor the nested loop into a function and use return to break out .

stop = False pip = [ 100, 200, 300] while not(stop) : for x in pip : if x < 300 : print("lower") else : print("higher") stop = True (that to break while loop ) break functions can be used in state of the variable (stop) to break: (1) all the loop : remove stop variable , add break in the last of code outside for loop and inside while loop . (2) for loop only : remove stop variable , add break in the last of code inside for loop . the first way make code complicate. the second way make it more clearer . use DRY principle .

Inside the for loop you can use break keyword to terminate the loop how ever if you want to skip particular number or case you can use continue keyword

I still did not manage to skip the even number in the fizzbuzz code challenge, can someone explain to me how to break the loop without stopping after 1

You need to use the 'continue' operator to skip everything that is written in the loop after it and go straight to the next iteration of the loop.

We can skip the even numbers by given range(1,n,2)

This can be done by using "break" keyword
