Re: break statement in a for loop

Ok, this was a bad fast example, I admit.
Therefore below another example that shows the point.


int main()
{
unsigned long i,j,k,l,n;

for (l=0;l<10000000;l++) {
j=0;
k=10;
n=231;

for (i=1;n>3;j+=8,k+=j,n-=2) {
if (k%n) continue;
i=0;
break;
}
}
return 0;
}


Run this without the break statement and with the break statement and
look at execution time. On my 1.5GHz P4 it takes 1.3s and 13.9s
respectively (!). My store on the factor 100 incorporates a lot more
code.
