Break/Continue in a while LoopBreak/Continue in a while Loop

Now, we'll attempt the same task we previously accomplished with the for loop—finding a number in the list and terminating the loop once it's located.

Examine the code below:

How does the code work?

Great!

Please be aware that the continue statement skips a block of code within the loop for the current iteration only. Now, let's count the occurrences of 11s in the code using continue.

Examine the code below:

How does the code work?

Task

Halt the loop when encountering a negative value.

  1. Initialize a while loop, employing i to interact with numbers.
  2. Increment the value of i.
  3. Display a message along with the negative element.
  4. Employ break and continue as needed.

Everything was clear?
