Use 'break'

but that won't fix your second while. That loop will never exist because you don't have a break in it, so you'll never even get to the third while. A "continue" merely tosses control to the bottom of the while loop but let's it continue, forever in your case. You should always have a failsafe in your loop conditions to prevent infinite loops.
