    Two Questions - Return at end of paired data points in CSV file, and how to "break"

    I am using the following line to write pairs of data files. I am hoping to create a CSV file.

    CODE fprintf(f, "%d,%f", Universe.year, Universe.R); CODE


    This simply writes pairs of data on the same line. I'd like pairs of data on individual lines. This means I need to insert a line feed, somehow, perhaps via a character insertion. Could someone please tell me how to do this easily?

    Finally, my memory is very vague on C programming. Is the proper means to exit a loop an if then statement containing the term "break"? How would that be implemented?

    Thank you!

    Code tags are done like this:
    [code]
    Your code goes here
    [/code]

    fprintf(f, "%d,%f\n", Universe.year, Universe.R);

    There isn't just one way to exit a loop.
    Code:
    bool someCondition = true;
    for (int i = 0; i < someValue  && someCondition; ++i)
    {
        if ( I_want_to_exit_early)
        {
            someCondition = false;
            continue;
        }
    }
    or
    Code:
    for (int i = 0; i < someValue; ++i)
    {
        // if the loop needs to terminate prematurely
        if ( I_want_to_exit_early )
            break;
       //...
    }

    Got the line feed to work by adding \n after the float output formatting code. Still need to verify the "break" from loop solution.

    Thanks for the "break"!
