Its primary use is inside [[switch]] blocks to close '''[[case]]''' statements, but it can also be used to exit a [[state]] early.

	Inside '''while''' loops, a '''break''' transfers control to the beginning of the loop where the condition for continuing the iteration is checked. This is in contrast to most imperative programming languages, where a '''break''' inside a loop transfers control to just after the end of the loop body (thus "breaking" it).

	See also [[return]].		In versions of eduke32 starting from 24th August 2023, the "break" command will report a warning if used inside a loop. Use [[continue]] or [[exit]] instead for clarity.
