I have a the below code, on which i am unable to break the loop on certain conditions.

 isVoteTally(): boolean {
let count = false;
this.tab.committee.ratings.forEach(element => {

  const _fo = this.isEmptyOrNull(element.ratings.finalOutcome.finaloutlook);
  const _foreign = this.isEmptyOrNull(element.ratings.finalOutcome.foreign);
  const _local = this.isEmptyOrNull(element.ratings.finalOutcome.local);
  const _tally = element.ratings.finalOutcome.voteTally.maj + element.ratings.finalOutcome.voteTally.dis;

  if (_fo == false && _foreign == false && _local == false) {
    if (_tally > 0) {
      **return count = false;**
    }
  } else {
    if (_tally < 0) {
      **return count = false;**
    }
  }
});
return count;

}

On the star-marked area, i want to break the code and return the boolean value, but i am unable to do it right now. Can anybody help me.

Thanks in advance.

this.tab.committee.ratings.forEach is not operator. Typescript allows much more readable code.

Use for loop in style as follows:

for(let a of this.tab.committee.ratings) {
   if(something_wrong) break;
}

p.s. forget "coding as with jQuery" in Angular. It just don't work.
