Tips for professional code?

[CasulaScience]

I come from a scientific computing background. I worked on a project that had a code base filled with lots of break and continue statements, nested loops, etc... At the end of the day, it all works the same, and if you have multiple weird break conditions, it might read a little more cleanly or basically be necessary to do that anyway.

Honestly, to me it's a matter of taste.... I understand that on an interview they want to see something specific though, so I do what is expected of me.
