# Perl last Statement
[ Perl Loops](#)
The Perl `last` statement is used to exit a loop block, thereby ending the loop. Statements after the `last` statement are not executed, and the `continue` block is also not executed.
### Syntax
The syntax format is as follows:
last ;

## Example
#!/usr/bin/perl$a = 10; while($a<20){if($a == 15){# Exit the loop$a = $a + 1; last; }print"The value of a is: $an"; $a = $a + 1; }
Executing the above program, the output result is:
The value of a is: 10 The value of a is: 11 The value of a is: 12 The value of a is: 13 The value of a is: 14
