+break
+=====
+
+**break** is used to exit from a **do**, **for**, or **while**
+loop, bypassing the normal loop condition. It is also used to exit
+from a **switch** statement.
+
+
+
+Example
+-------
+
+::
+
+    for (x = 0; x < 255; x ++)
+    {
+        digitalWrite(PWMpin, x);
+        sens = analogRead(sensorPin);  
+        if (sens > threshold){      // bail out on sensor detect
+           x = 0;
+           break;
+        }  
+        delay(50);
+    }
+
