Sometimes, you might need to stop the loop from within its body. Use the break
statement within loops to pass control to the first statement following the innermost
loop (for, while, or do).

For example:

Lcd_Out(1, 1, "No card inserted")

' Wait for CF card to be plugged; refresh every second
while true

if Cf_Detect() = 1 

end if
Delay_ms(1000)

' Now we can work with CF card ...

Lcd_Out(1, 1, "Card detected   ")

You can use the 

continue

statement within loops to “skip the cycle”:

- 

continue

statement in the 

for

loop moves program counter to the line with 

keyword for 

- 

continue

statement in the 

while

loop moves program counter to the line with loop 

condition (top of the loop), 

- 

continue

statement in the 

do

loop moves program counter to the line with loop 

condition (bottom of the loop).
