Break statement in Go - Interactive Code Practice

Practice - 5 Tasks

1fill in blank

easy

Complete the code to exit the loop when i equals 3.

Go

for i := 1; i <= 5; i++ {
    if i == 3 {
        [1]
    }
    fmt.Println(i)
}

💡 Hint

Common Mistakes

Using 'continue' instead of 'break' causes the loop to skip the current iteration but not exit.

Using 'return' inside the loop exits the function, not just the loop.

The break statement exits the nearest enclosing loop immediately.

medium

Complete the code to stop the loop when the character 'x' is found in the string.

Go

str := "golang"
for _, ch := range str {
    if ch == '[1]' {
        break
    }
    fmt.Printf("%c", ch)
}

💡 Hint

Common Mistakes

Choosing a character that is in the string but not intended to stop the loop.

Using double quotes instead of single quotes for a rune.

The loop breaks when the character 'x' is found, stopping the printing.

3fill in blank

hard

Fix the error in the loop to break when the number is greater than 10.

Go

nums := []int{5, 8, 12, 3}
for _, num := range nums {
    if num [1] 10 {
        break
    }
    fmt.Println(num)
}

A<=

B<

C==

D>

Attempts:

💡 Hint

Common Mistakes

Using '<=' breaks the loop too early or too late.

Using '==' only breaks if the number equals 10 exactly.

The condition should check if the number is greater than 10 to break the loop.

4fill in blank

hard

Fill both blanks to create a map of squares for numbers greater than 2.

Go

squares := map[int]int{}
for i := 1; i <= 5; i++ {
    if i [1] 2 {
        squares[i] = i [2] i
    }
}

D*

Attempts:

💡 Hint

Common Mistakes

Using '<' instead of '>' causes wrong numbers to be squared.

Using '**' is invalid in Go for exponentiation.

The loop adds squares of numbers greater than 2 using the multiplication operator.

5fill in blank

hard

Fill the blanks to create a map of uppercase keys and values greater than 0.

Go

import "strings"
data := map[string]int{"a": 1, "b": 0, "c": 3}
result := map[string]int{}
for k, v := range data {
    if v [1] 0 {
        result[[2]] = v
    }
}

fmt.Println(result)

💡 Hint

Common Mistakes

Using '>=' includes zero values, which is not intended.

Using 'k' as key keeps keys lowercase.

The loop adds entries with values greater than 0, using uppercase keys.
