The second loop wouldn't stop as if it passed an if, so I changed the location of the y variable, it should be inside the first loop and this code would work. I just can't imagine why this happens, in the order of the first loop then the second loop, because the control flow doesn't work then the second loop becomes an unlimited process and the first loop will never finish.

Is it because the y variable is too far away (wrapped in loop with loop) so that the control flow cannot check the value of Y how much?

fn main (){
   let mut x: i32 = 0;
   let mut y =  5;


   'first_loop: loop {

      println!("x = {x}");
      x += 1;

   'second_loop: loop {
      println!("y = {y}");
      y -= 1;
      if y == 2 {break 'second_loop}
      if x == 10 {break 'first_loop}

   }
   }
}
