Question

I break the code of the for loop without using break like I have for loop given below.And when i is 1 or 2 or 3 or any else but if condition is true then loop will be terminated because i will be 5 if the condition is true.And so NO need of break is needed there.Beacause I do not want to use break.I have done like this here.It works.

int myCondition=0;
bool flag=false;
for(int i=0;i<5;i++)
{
   if(myCondition==0)
   {
       flag=true;
   }
   if(flag)
       i=5;
}

But now I want to use foreach loop and in this loop when some condition is true then I want to break the foreach loop code.So what should I do here for breaking the foreach loop code without using break ? Like in the above for loop I have initialize i to 5 when condition is true.In the foreach loop anything like that to do to avoid break.

Don’t do it.

Your manipulation of ‘i’ in the for loop is questionable already. Trying to mess with the iterator in a foreach-loop would be downright dirty. If it compiles at all.

I would write your example with a break or as:

bool myCondition=false;
for(int i=0;i<5 && !myCondition;i++)
{
   ....
}

In a foreach loop, when you’re done before the entire sequence is complete, just call break
