break/continue: Labeled Loop Control

In this problem, you will create a program that searches for a value read from standard input in a 3x4 two-dimensional array using labeled break in nested loops and displays the found coordinates to standard output.

Learning Objective: Understand how to use labels to specify the target of break/continue in nested loops

Overview

A regular break terminates the innermost loop, but using labels allows direct termination of outer loops. This is useful for two-dimensional array searches and complex loop processing.

Specifications

Create a program that searches for a specific value in a 2D array and displays the found coordinates:

1. Initialize a 3x4 two-dimensional array with these values:
   • Row 0: {1, 2, 3, 4}
   • Row 1: {5, 6, 7, 8}
   • Row 2: {9, 10, 11, 12}
2. Read one integer from standard input and assign it to target
3. Label the outer loop with outer:
4. Display "Searching [row][col]" during search
5. When found, display "Found at [row][col]" and exit both loops with labeled break
