The loop statement executes its statement list for ever. You must include Break or Exit procedure calls for terminating iteration.
The loop statement syntax allows to include a list of semicolon separated statements without grouping them inside a block:
loop statement-list... end;
By default, this is an never ending loop. You must use one from these special statements in order to alter the default control flow:
Statement | Purpose |
---|---|
Break | Interrupts the loop and resumes execution immediately after the loop's end. |
Continue | Skip remaining statements and jumps to the beginning of loop. |
Exit | Interrupts the loop and exits the current method. |
goto label | Jumps to an arbitrary point inside the method. |
