The loop that executes completely for each cycle of the outer loop.
What does the `break` statement do in a nested loop?
Exits the inner loop immediately.
What does the `continue` statement do in a nested loop?
Skips the current iteration of the inner loop.
What does the following code output?
```java
public static void printPyramid(int n) {
for (int i = 0; i < n; i++) {
for (int j = i; j < n; j++) {
System.out.print("*");
}
System.out.println();
}
}
printPyramid(3);
```

Identify the potential issue in the following code:
```java
for (int i = 0; i < n; i++) {
for (int j = 0; i < m; j++) {
System.out.println(i + " " + j);
}
}
```
The inner loop condition `i < m` should be `j < m` to avoid an infinite loop or incorrect behavior.
What will be the value of `primes` after the following code executes with `n = 3`?
```java
public static ArrayList<Integer> findNPrimes(int n) {
int prime = 2;
ArrayList<Integer> primes = new ArrayList<Integer>();
for (int i = 0; i < n; i++) { // Outer loop: Finds n primes
boolean notPrime = false;
while (!notPrime) { // Middle loop: Checks if current number is prime
for (int j = 2; j < prime; j++){ // Inner loop: Checks for divisors
if (prime % j == 0) {
notPrime = true;
break; // Exit inner loop if not prime
}
}
if (notPrime) {
prime++;
notPrime = false;
} else {
notPrime = true; // Exit middle loop if prime
}
}
primes.add(prime);
prime++;
}
return primes;
}
ArrayList<Integer> primes = findNPrimes(3);
```

Give a real-world application of nested loops.
Searching for a specific pixel in an image (2D array).
How are nested loops used in game development?
To iterate through game boards or maps, checking for collisions, or updating game states.
How are nested loops used in data analysis?
To compare all pairs of data points in a dataset, calculate correlations, or identify patterns.
