in ANSI C, if I have

while ()
     if()
          if()
               break;

will "break;" break out of the while() or the "if" ?

break closes the current loop control structure (while or do), not if's or anything else

Just in case you hadn't figured (this isn't meant to be a jab at your intelligence), it also breaks for loops. C'est tr�s handy.
