Hi

I am using an iterative method and I want to add a stopping criterion in which the iterating will stop when there is no change in 3 consecutive iterations. I did the following but I am getting syntax error but I am not sure whether the use of BREAK it's correct. My code is as follows:

COUNTER = 0
IF ABS(OLD_VALUE-NEW_VALUE) EQ 0 THEN COUNTER = COUNTER + 1 $
ELSE COUNTER = 0

IF COUNTER EQ 3 THEN
BREAK
ENDIF
