一种方法，在迭代时在一个范围内生成值，直到中断条件，而不是先生成整个范围，然后使用迭代器在其上迭代，(灵感来自@RexKerr使用Stream)

var sum = 0
for ( i <- Iterator.from(1).takeWhile( _ => sum < 1000) ) sum += i

第三方易碎包是一种可能的替代方案

示例代码:

scala> import com.manyangled.breakable._
import com.manyangled.breakable._

scala> val bkb2 = for {
     |   (x, xLab) <- Stream.from(0).breakable   // create breakable sequence with a method
     |   (y, yLab) <- breakable(Stream.from(0))  // create with a function
     |   if (x % 2 == 1) continue(xLab)          // continue to next in outer "x" loop
     |   if (y % 2 == 0) continue(yLab)          // continue to next in inner "y" loop
     |   if (x > 10) break(xLab)                 // break the outer "x" loop
     |   if (y > x) break(yLab)                  // break the inner "y" loop
     | } yield (x, y)
bkb2: com.manyangled.breakable.Breakable[(Int, Int)] = com.manyangled.breakable.Breakable@34dc53d2

scala> bkb2.toVector
res0: Vector[(Int, Int)] = Vector((2,1), (4,1), (4,3), (6,1), (6,3), (6,5), (8,1), (8,3), (8,5), (8,7), (10,1), (10,3), (10,5), (10,7), (10,9))

这在Scala 2.8中有所改变，它有一种使用断点的机制。您现在可以执行以下操作:

import scala.util.control.Breaks._
var largest = 0
// pass a function to the breakable method
breakable { 
    for (i<-999 to 1  by -1; j <- i to 1 by -1) {
        val product = i * j
        if (largest > product) {
            break  // BREAK!!
        }
        else if (product.toString.equals(product.toString.reverse)) {
            largest = largest max product
        }
    }
}

您有三个(大约)选项可以跳出循环。

假设您希望将数字相加，直到总数大于1000。你尝试

var sum = 0
for (i <- 0 to 1000) sum += i

除非你想在(sum > 1000)时停止。

怎么办呢?有几种选择。

(1a)使用一些包含你要测试的条件的结构。

var sum = 0
(0 to 1000).iterator.takeWhile(_ => sum < 1000).foreach(i => sum+=i)

(警告——这取决于takeWhile测试和foreach在评估期间如何交织的细节，并且可能不应该在实践中使用!)

(1b)使用尾递归代替for循环，利用Scala中编写新方法的简单性:

var sum = 0
def addTo(i: Int, max: Int) {
  sum += i; if (sum < max) addTo(i+1,max)
}
addTo(0,1000)

(1c)回到使用while循环

var sum = 0
var i = 0
while (i <= 1000 && sum <= 1000) { sum += 1; i += 1 }

(2)抛出异常。

object AllDone extends Exception { }
var sum = 0
try {
  for (i <- 0 to 1000) { sum += i; if (sum>=1000) throw AllDone }
} catch {
  case AllDone =>
}

(2a)在Scala 2.8+中，这已经被预先打包在Scala .util.control. breaks中，使用的语法看起来很像你熟悉的C/Java break:

import scala.util.control.Breaks._
var sum = 0
breakable { for (i <- 0 to 1000) {
  sum += i
  if (sum >= 1000) break
} }

(3)将代码放入方法并使用return。

var sum = 0
def findSum { for (i <- 0 to 1000) { sum += i; if (sum>=1000) return } }
findSum

This is intentionally made not-too-easy for at least three reasons I can think of. First, in large code blocks, it's easy to overlook "continue" and "break" statements, or to think you're breaking out of more or less than you really are, or to need to break two loops which you can't do easily anyway--so the standard usage, while handy, has its problems, and thus you should try to structure your code a different way. Second, Scala has all sorts of nestings that you probably don't even notice, so if you could break out of things, you'd probably be surprised by where the code flow ended up (especially with closures). Third, most of Scala's "loops" aren't actually normal loops--they're method calls that have their own loop, or they are recursion which may or may not actually be a loop--and although they act looplike, it's hard to come up with a consistent way to know what "break" and the like should do. So, to be consistent, the wiser thing to do is not to have a "break" at all.

注意:在返回sum的值而不是原地改变它的地方，所有这些函数都有等价的功能。这些是更习惯的Scala。然而，逻辑是一样的。(return变成return x，等等)。

讽刺的是，Scala break在Scala .util.control. breaks中是一个异常:

def break(): Nothing = { throw breakException }

最好的建议是:不要使用break，继续和goto!在我看来，它们是一样的，糟糕的做法和各种问题(和热议)的邪恶根源，最后“被认为是有害的”。代码块结构化，在本例中也有断点是多余的。 我们的Edsger W. Dijkstra†写道:

程序员的素质是他们编写的程序中go to语句密度的递减函数。

// import following package
import scala.util.control._

// create a Breaks object as follows
val loop = new Breaks;

// Keep the loop inside breakable as follows
loop.breakable{
// Loop will go here
for(...){
   ....
   // Break will go here
   loop.break;
   }
}
