Nested Loops

Just like with if, The code inside of the { and } can be anything, including more loops.

int x = 5;
int y = 3;

while (x != 0) {
    while (y != 0) {
        System.out.println(
            "x is " + x
        );
        System.out.println(
            "y is " + y
        );

        x--;
        y--;
    }
}

If you are inside such a "nested loop", continue and break apply to the "closest" loop.

That is, if a continue or a break were to appear here

while (x != 0) {
    while (y != 0) {
        if (y == 2) {
            break;
        }

        System.out.println(
            "x is " + x
        );
        System.out.println(
            "y is " + y
        );

        x--;
        y--;
    }
}

Then the y != 0 loop will be broken out of, not the x != 0 one. And if a continue or a break were to appear here

while (x != 0) {
    if (x == 2) {
        break;
    }
    while (y != 0) {


        System.out.println(
            "x is " + x
        );
        System.out.println(
            "y is " + y
        );

        x--;
        y--;
    }
}

Then the x != 0 loop would be the "target."
