label in java

[9002code]

class jumping{ public static void main(String[] args){ int b,c; float a; b = 8; c = 2; test: { a = b/c; System.out.println("a first is "+a); while(a<=10){ b++; System.out.println("b in continue is "+b); if (b==12) { break test; } System.out.println("a final is "+a); continue test; } } } } i need final value of a is 6. but i can't? can you solve this? there are error in "continue test" statements, it give not a label? i need there code jump to label test like goto in C++? Kindly help me????

why not just make test into a function or method and invoke it, im not sure what your code is supossed to do, but if it's supossed to continue executing untill b is 12, i've written an example :

class jumping{
public static void main(String[] args){
int b,c;
float a;
b = 8;
c = 2;
test(a,b,c);
}//main

public void test(float a, int b, int c)
{
for( ; ; ){
a = b/c;
System.out.println("a first is "+a);
while(a<=10){
b++;
System.out.println("b in continue is "+b);
if (b==12)
{
System.out.println("a final is "+a);
return;
}

}//while

}//for

}//test

}//jumping

ps : ident your code, it's very difficult to read otherwise, and use the code block ps2 : someone should disbale smileys in the code block

class jumping
{
public static void main(String[] args)
{
int b,c;
float a;
b=8;
c=2;
test:
{

a=b/c;
System.out.println("a first is" +a);
while(a<=10)
{
b++;
System.out.println("b in continue is " +b);
if(b==12)
{
break test;
}
System.out.println("a final is" +a);
continue test;
}

}
}
}

i want if b not equal to 12 then "a final is" is print. and b increase and also a is but it not? "kindly help me in java for using label/jump like goto in c++"

thanks. that is ok.. but it's not good solution for my problem. ok, i tell all thinks.... i develop a math program where a loop run apporoximat 800000 time and finaly value is came. in c++ there are goto statements and control jump to backword or forwared where we need. like that i need jump my code if my condition false and if true the loop exit.. so i can't use function. and it's a reason i send my code like that... so if u do please help me..

The goto statement is bad. When ever you call goto in a program a bunny will stub its toe. You can't be nasty to a fluffy bunny's toe can you? Loose the goto and learn to love and embrace methods and loops.#
