Way to break out of an inner For loop in Swift [duplicate]

Question

Is there a simple way to break out of an inner For loop, i.e. a Fro loop within another For loop? Without having to set additional flags for example

Answer 1

You just need to name your loop. Like this:

   let array = [1,2,3]

   for number in 1...6 {

        innerLoop: for i in array {

            let newNumber = i + number

            if i == 2 {

                break innerLoop
            }
        }
    }

Answer 2

There are three basic methods:

1. Using an additional boolean flag

2. Using a labelled loop (label: for ...) and then break label

3. Extracting the loops into a separate function/method and then using a return instead of a break.

From code quality perspective I believe 3. is the best solution.
