LEAVE |
The LEAVE operation transfers control from within a DO or FOR group to the statement following the ENDDO or ENDFOR operation.
You can use LEAVE within a DO, DOU, DOUxx, DOW, DOWxx, or FOR loop to transfer control immediately from the innermost loop to the statement following the innermost loop's ENDDO or ENDFOR operation. Using LEAVE to leave a DO or FOR group does not increment the index.
In nested loops, LEAVE causes control to transfer “outwards” by one level only. LEAVE is not allowed outside a DO or FOR group.
The ITER (Iterate) operation is similar to the LEAVE operation; however, ITER transfers control to the ENDDO or ENDFOR statement.

* The following example uses an infinite loop. When the user
* types 'q', control transfers to the LEAVE operation, which in
* turn transfers control out of the loop to the Z-ADD operation.

C IF ANSWER = 'q'

C Z-ADD A B

* The following example uses a DOUxx loop containing a DOWxx.
* The IF statement checks indicator 1. If it is ON, indicator
* 99 is turned ON, control passes to the LEAVE operation and
* out of the inner DOWxx loop.
*
* A second LEAVE instruction is then executed because indicator 99
* is ON, which in turn transfers control out of the DOUxx loop.
