Question

If you use the break statement will it break all if…else…if else statements and all loops? If so how can you break just a single if/loop.

while(test here){if({break;}don't break;)}

Answer 1

The break statement will only break out of the one loop in that you put it in. It doesn’t affect if/else statements. If you want to break an outer loop you can use labels, as in this answer.

while(true){
    if(something) {
        break;
        console.log("this won't ever be executed");
    } else {
        console.log("still in loop");
    }
}
