When the break statement is encountered in a loop, all the statements in the body of the loop that appear after it are ignored, and the loop prepares for the next iteration.
a) true
b) false

False

Explanation:

The statement is false because all statement after break statement are ignored but along with that control move out of loop to other instructions and  doesn't  perform next iteration of loop. Forexample:

for  (i=0;i<10;i++){

if(some condition)

break;

x=y;

y=z;

}

statement 1

statement 2

In above example after encountering break statement it will ignore statement after break plus it will not continue the next iteration and control move out of loop toward 'statement 1'

Option b false

Explanation:

In programming, a break statement will terminate the loop and the program control will return to the statement after the loop. This means the loop won't prepare for the next iteration when a break statement is encountered.

One common use case of break statement is when we wish to terminate a linear search once the target number is found from an array. For example:

Since there is no point to continue the loop after the target number is found and therefore a break statement (Line 9) is included to terminate the loop.
