break

how do i break out of an entire method (void return type)?

i have a loop that, under certain conditions, must contain some sort of
method termination (assignment).

does a 'break;' statement break out of the entire method, or just the loop?

thanks for any consideration

return;

Some companies do not allow the use of multiple points of return from a
method (except, of course, for exception handling) by convention.

I created a test program to implement an iterator. First, I used 'yield break' in the iterator, it worked normally. Then, I simply used 'break' in the places of 'yield break', it still worked normally. What's the difference between 'yield break' and 'break' here? Thanks!

I recently wrote an ASP.NET app that used user controls. I produced a printer-friendly output form. One requirement was a pagebreak between one part of the form and another. I had no problem adding the style definition below in the <hr> tag (line tag) which was the last item in the page before the break: <hr color="gray" size="1" style="PAGE-BREAK-AFTER: always"> and when the form is printed it forces a page-break. However, now I'm...

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>". The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed. This is as boiled down as I can make it. Here is my compilation command: g++-12 -std=c++20 -Wnarrowing bit_field.cpp Here is the code in...
