loops - Is it possible to exit a for before time in C++, if an ending condition is reached?

Question

I want to know if it is possible to end a for loop in C++ when an ending condition (different from the reacheing right number of iterations) is verified. For instance:

for (int i = 0; i < maxi; ++i)
    for (int j = 0; j < maxj; ++j)
        // But if i == 4 < maxi AND j == 3 < maxj, 
        // then jump out of the two nested loops.

I know that this is possible in Perl with the next LABEL or last LABEL calls and labeled blocks, is it possible to do it in C++ or I should use a while loop?

Thank you.

You can use the return keyword: move the nested loop into a subroutine, invoke the subroutine to run the nested loops, and 'return' from the subroutine to exit [all] the loops.
