A loop will execute as long as its condition remains true, but you can stop it manually using the break
keyword. For example:
var peopleArray = ["John", "Nicole", "Thomas", "Richard", "Brian", "Novak", "Vick", "Amanda", "Sonya"]
var positionOfNovak = 0
for person in peopleArray {
if person == "Novak" { break }
positionOfNovak += 1
}
print("Novak is the element located on position [\(positionOfNovak)] in peopleArray.")
//prints out: Novak is the element located on position 5 in peopleArray. (which is true)
