How can the R repeat Loop be stopped?

The repeat loop in R can be stopped by using the break statement. Since repeat loops do not have a predefined exit condition, the loop will continue indefinitely until a break statement is encountered.

# Example of stopping a repeat loop
i <- 1
repeat {
    print(i)
    i <- i + 1
    if (i > 3) {
        break  # Stop the loop when i exceeds 3
    }
}

# Output:
# [1] 1
# [1] 2
# [1] 3

In this example, the loop continues until i exceeds 3, at which point the break statement stops the loop. The break statement is essential for controlling the execution of repeat loops and preventing infinite loops.
