ugBASIC User Manual

   EXIT [number]

The instruction forces the program to leave a loop immediately, and it can be used to escape from all the types of loop, such as FOR…NEXT, REPEAT…UNTIL, WHILE…WEND and DO…LOOP.

When used on its own, EXIT will short-circuit the innermost loop only. By including a number after EXIT, that number of nested loops will be taken into account before the EXIT is made.
