Microsoft Visual C++/cli step by Step

performing unconditional jumps

C++/CLI provides two keywords—break and continue—with which you can jump unconditionally 

within a loop. The break statement causes you to exit the loop immediately. The continue statement 

abandons the current iteration and goes back to the top of the loop ready for the next iteration.

Note The break and continue statements can make it difficult to understand the logical 

flow through a loop. Use break and continue sparingly to avoid complicating your code 

unnecessarily.

In this exercise, you will modify the main loop in your Calendar Assistant application. You will give 

the user the chance to break from the loop prematurely, skip the current date and continue on to the 

next one, or display the current date as normal.
