Maybe the break/continue with C. In this case:

   while (1) {
      if (xyz) break;
   }

is in Ada:

   loop
        exit when xyz;
   end loop;

For readability (if the loop is big) you can name this loop:

   Search_Name : loop
      ...
      exit Search_Name when xyz;
      ...
   end loop Search_Name;

Pascal.
