Thread: if/break statement

Hi @all

I have an if statement in my prog. I want my program ends if my if statement returns false.

In order to end my prog. I used break but g++ compiler says I should put them in a loop or switch statement.

for example, can I write a statement like without putting them in a loop;

Code:

if (isalpha(chr1)
   cout <<ch1<<" is a char "<<endl;
else
{
    cout <<ch1<<" is not a char "<<" quitting. "<<endl;
    break;
}

thanks
