Thread: How do I terminate a FOR Loop?

In the below FOR Loop, I only want VALUE FOUND or VALUE NOT FOUND
printed once. Right now depending on what array[index] the value is in
(ie. if it's in the third index) it will print VALUE NOT FOUND twice, then
VALUE FOUND.

How do I modify to print either statement 1x? Partial Code follows...
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

cin >> choice;
for (int count = 0; count < 5; count++)
{
if (numbers[count] == choice)
cout << "VALUE FOUND: " << choice << endl;
else
cout << "VALUE NOT FOUND:" << endl;
}
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Thanks for any assistance. I'm a beginner by the way.

That loop should stop once it gets to 4.
Hope that helps i'm new to this also. See ya.

I think what you're looking for was what the guy way up there ^ mentioned. break;. You may want to use an if statement like this:

while (loop_needs_to_be_run == true)
{
// Yada, yada, yada
if (loop_needs_to_exit == true)
break;
}
