Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -The break statement in Python terminates the current loop and resumes execution at the next statement, just like the traditional break found in C. The most common use for break is when some external condition is triggered requiring a hasty exit from a loop. The break statement can be used in both while and for loops.

Detailed explanation-2: -The break statement is used to terminate the execution of the current loop.

Detailed explanation-3: -The break statement terminates the execution of the nearest enclosing do, for, switch, or while statement in which it appears. Control passes to the statement that follows the terminated statement.

Detailed explanation-4: -’Break’ in Python is a loop control statement. It is used to control the sequence of the loop. Suppose you want to terminate a loop and skip to the next code after the loop; break will help you do that.

Detailed explanation-5: -The break statement exits a for or while loop completely. To skip the rest of the instructions in the loop and begin the next iteration, use a continue statement. break is not defined outside a for or while loop. To exit a function, use return .
