Learn Intermediate Python 3 with this interactive course, and get a handle on the most popular programming language in the world.

Join us on an interactive journey through the syntax and functionality of Python. The course begins by exploring the basic building blocks before moving on to higher-level concepts such as functions and loops. Fun quizzes and coding challenges will accompany you along the way to help enforce all the concepts covered in the course.

By the time you're done, you'll have the skills you need to create your own basic applications in Python 3.

When adding a loop, we always decide the terminating condition. Let's say we need to print first `n` numbers; so we can write our loop as:
```python3
for n in range(0, 10):
  print(n)
```

## The `break` Keyword

What if, we need to exit a loop before it reaches the end?

Suppose we have first ten natural numbers in a box, and we have to find whether `x` number exists in that box or not. If `x` is less than 10, we don't have to run loop $10$ times. We can stop, once we find `x`.

That’s what the `break` keyword is for. It can break the loop whenever we want.

In this lesson, we'll learn the use of 'break' and 'continue' keyword in loops.
