Program:

#include <stdio.h>
void main ()
{ 
int a =  0 ; 
while( a < 100 )
{
	printf("value of a: %d\n", a);
	a++;
	if( a == 50 )
	{ 
	 break;
	}
 }
 
}

Output:

value of a: 0
value of a: 1
value of a: 2
value of a: 3
value of a: 4
value of a: 5
value of a: 6
value of a: 7
value of a: 8
value of a: 9
value of a: 10
value of a: 11
value of a: 12
value of a: 13

value of a: 26
value of a: 27
value of a: 28
value of a: 29
value of a: 30
value of a: 31

Explanation:

This will print from o to 49 then break will take place.When the break statement is encountered inside a loop, the loop is immediately terminated, and program control resumes at the next statement following the loop.
